The district as a whole is ranked 200 out of 247 school districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating significant challenges in providing quality education to its students.
Prescott High School has a predominantly Hispanic student population, with 85.07% of the 67 students identifying as Hispanic.

Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $37,469 and a low student-to-teacher ratio of 8.4, the school's academic outcomes remain poor, suggesting ineffective resource allocation and utilization.
While the school's dropout rate is 0.0%, which is better than the state average, its four-year graduation rate of 81.8% is slightly below the state average. The high percentage of students (74.63%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch indicates a relatively low-income student population, which may require targeted support and resources to address their unique educational needs. Overall, the data highlights the need for a deeper investigation into the factors contributing to the poor academic performance at Prescott High School and the broader challenges facing the Prescott School District.
