In the 2022-23 school year, 81% of Phoenix Union High School District students failed their ACT Language Arts test, according to the Arizona Department of Education.

The 5,707 students who took the ACT test were assessed at four proficiency levels in each subject. Those at levels one and two failed the test, while students who reached the third and fourth proficiency levels passed the test.

Phoenix Union High School District roughly covers schools within Maricopa County County and has a main office in Phoenix.

A 2023 study from Scholaroo.com ranked Arizona last out of all U.S. states in terms of educational success, giving the state poor markets for school quality, student success, and teacher-to-student ratio.

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.
