About Fredonia Elementary School

Fredonia Elementary School is a regular public school serving 79 students from pre-kindergarten through sixth grade in Fredonia, Arizona. At 11.3 students per teacher, the school runs one of the leaner ratios in the state, giving each student meaningfully more direct instruction time than most Arizona elementary classrooms provide.

It ranks 7th out of 1,216 elementary schools in Arizona — a top-0.6% result. Academic performance scores 8.3, and growth scores 9.8 out of 10. That near-perfect growth figure signals students here advance faster than their incoming level would predict — the harder metric to sustain and the stronger predictor of long-term outcomes.

High proficiency paired with high growth is an uncommon combination. Across all 2,000 Arizona public schools at every grade level, Fredonia Elementary sits at the 100th percentile, outperforming every peer in the state. It also holds the top position among both elementary schools in Fredonia.

For parents weighing options, that cross-level ranking — measured not just against elementaries but against middle and high schools statewide — makes the performance picture unusually clear.

What Parents Should Know

With an enrollment of 79 students, Fredonia Elementary School is a smaller school where families often find a close-knit community atmosphere. Smaller settings can mean more individual attention from teachers and staff, though they may offer fewer extracurricular options than larger schools.

Located in a rural area, Fredonia Elementary School may involve longer commutes for some families. Rural schools often serve as community anchors and may have smaller class sizes, but parents should consider transportation logistics, after-school program availability, and access to specialized services.
