Only 28.8% of 10,668 Yavapai County students passed their AASA mathematics test in the 2022-23 school year, according to the Arizona Department of Education.
The students who took the AASA test were assessed at four proficiency levels in two subjects: ELA and mathematics. Those achieving proficiency levels one and two failed the test, while students reaching the third and fourth proficiency levels passed the test.
Of the 3,072 students who passed the test, most achieved proficiency level three (2,179).
A 2023 study from Scholaroo 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.
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 were associated with a decline in students’ academic achievement.
