In the 2022-23 school year, 75.5% of Apache County students failed their AASA Language Arts test, according to the Arizona Department of Education.

The 2,913 students who took the AASA test were assessed at four proficiency levels in each subject. Those achieving proficiency levels one and two failed the test, while the 24.5% of students who reached the third and fourth proficiency levels passed the test.

Of those who failed, most achieved proficiency level one.

A 2023 2023 study from Scholaroo.com ranked Arizona last out of all U.S. states in terms of educational success, giving the state poor marks for school quality, student success, and teacher-to-student ratio.

WalletHub claimed Arizona’s school system ranked among the worst across U.S. for class size, performance, funding, safety, and instructors’ credentials.
