FHUSD Earns an “A” for Academic Excellence

We are proud to share that Fountain Hills Unified School District has retained its “A” Letter Grade for 2025 from the Arizona Department of Education! This achievement reflects the exceptional academic performance and growth of our students, as well as the dedication of our teachers and administrators across all campuses.

Fountain Hills High School earned its sixth “A” Letter Grade—and its third in a row—while increasing its overall score from last year. Fountain Hills Middle School earned its second consecutive “A” Letter Grade, marking more than 20 points of growth over the past four years. McDowell Mountain Elementary School also showed tremendous academic gains, improving its score by more than six points and coming within one point of earning an “A.”

This recognition is a testament to the academic growth, continuous improvement, and collaborative spirit that define FHUSD. Our students are achieving more than ever before, and our district continues to set the standard for excellence in Arizona.

Together, we are building something truly special in Fountain Hills.
