In the 2022-23 school year, 69% of Mingus Union High School District students failed their AASA/ACT Language Arts test, according to the Arizona Department of Education.

The 255 students who took the AASA/ACT test were assessed at four proficiency levels in each subject. Those at levels one and two failed the test, while students who reached the third and fourth proficiency levels passed the test.

Mingus Union High School District covers only one school within Yavapai County County and has a main office in Cottonwood.

In 2022 Arizona had roughly one teacher for every 19 students, compared to the national average of one teacher for 16 students. Teachers handling a higher number of students was found to have negative consequences for students’ school performance.
