In the 2022-23 school year, 36% of Red Rock Elementary District students passed their AASA Language Arts test, according to the Arizona Department of Education.

The 306 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.

Of those who passed, most achieved proficiency level three.

Red Rock Elementary District covers only one school within Pinal County and has a main office in Red Rock.

Math scores fell the most from 2019 to 2022, while language arts scores decreased to a lesser extent from 2019 to 2022, according to the Nation's Report Card.
