Among 771 high schools in Arizona with comparable records, this school is larger than the reported median of 80 students. Its enrollment is at approximately the 67th percentile for that peer group. Size describes the campus, not instructional quality.
The reported student–teacher ratio is 19.4:1, close to the Arizona median of 17.8:1 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 Hispanic or Latino (67.8%) and American Indian or Alaska Native (13.2%). English learners represent 7.3% of enrollment. Students served under IDEA represent 15.1%. 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.
