What the reported data says about Anthem School
Anthem School is a public elementary school serving grades PK–08 in ANTHEM. It is one of 42 current school records connected to Deer Valley Unified District (4246). NCES reports 400 students for 2024–25.
Among 1,191 elementary schools in Arizona with comparable records, this school is smaller than the reported median of 453 students. Its enrollment is at approximately the 40th percentile for that peer group. Size describes the campus, not instructional quality.
The reported student–teacher ratio is 14.8:1, close to the Arizona median of 16.4:1 for the same school level. This ratio uses total enrollment and teacher FTE; it is not an average classroom headcount and can be affected by special programs or part-time staffing.
The two largest reported race and ethnicity groups are White (75.3%) and Hispanic or Latino (15.5%). English learners represent 0.7% of enrollment. Students served under IDEA represent 12.9%. These figures help families understand who the school serves; they are not rating inputs.
The 2021–22 civil-rights collection reports access to gifted and talented programming. Program availability changes, so families should confirm the current catalog and participation rules directly with the school.
