Profile interpretation
Desert Edge High School ranks #168 among 270 eligible Arizona public high schools in the 2025 achievement ranking. Its score is -0.50, corresponding to a statewide percentile of 38 among eligible schools.
The three-year reportable passing percentages are ACT English Language Arts 33%, ACT Mathematics 18%, and AzSCI Science 17%. The ranking uses available proficiency bands and the published suppression fallbacks, so passing percentages provide context but are not the score by themselves.
The reported three-year tested count is 1,510. NCES enrollment is 2,106 in the NCES 2024-25 snapshot. Because these figures cover different periods and populations, tested divided by enrollment is not a participation rate. The count covering scoreable years is 1,510; this is the separate count used for eligibility when it is available.
Desert Edge High School is classified as a district public school in GOODYEAR, Maricopa County. The profile uses an ordinary enrollment context label so families can account for meaningful differences in enrollment and instructional models when comparing schools.
These profiles share the same district when available, followed by other schools in the same county. Their instructional and admissions contexts may still differ.

Not yet verified
Admission requirements have not yet been verified. Normal is a classification, not a guarantee of unrestricted admission.
A normal-context label is not proof of unrestricted entry. Policies, grade openings and capacity can change. Confirm the process directly with the school.
Reported proficiency for different yearly cohorts is not individual student growth or a measure of teaching effectiveness. Missing years and suppressed cells remain gaps.
Four-year and five-year figures can refer to different graduating cohorts. ADE enrollment is an October snapshot across all campus grades, separate from the NCES enrollment above. Protected cells remain unavailable; a reported bound is not an exact rate. These context measures do not change the Achievement score.
Official A-F grades and open-enrollment participation are not yet verified in this export. Historical participation would not establish current seat availability.
