In the 2022-23 school year, 34% of Topock Elementary District students passed their AASA Language Arts test, according to the Arizona Department of Education.

The 47 students who took the AASA were assessed at four proficiency levels in each subject. Those at proficiency level one and two failed the test, while students who reached the third and fourth proficiency level passed the test.

Topock Elementary District covers only one school within Mohave County and has a main office in Topock.

WalletHub claimed Arizona’s school system ranked among the worst across U.S. for class size, performance, funding, safety, and instructors’ credentials.

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.
