Frequently asked questions

What is the best public school in Gilbert?

Neely Traditional Academy in Gilbert, Arizona ranks first among traditional public schools in Gilbert with a Success Index (US) of 84.7 out of 100 (Enrollment: 805).

How are traditional public schools in Gilbert ranked?

Each school's Success Index (US) combines 4 factors: math proficiency (30%), reading proficiency (30%), community advantage (fewer free/reduced-price lunch) (25%), students per teacher (15%). Each factor is a percentile against schools of the same type across United States. Schools with fewer than 60 students are excluded from rankings.

Are these 2025 rankings official?

No. They are computed by Success Tutoring from official American data (Urban Institute Education Data Portal (NCES CCD, EDFacts); NCES Common Core of Data).
