When it comes to academic performance, Cochise Elementary often ranks as one of the top elementary schools in Scottsdale, with test scores in reading and math well above average and a desirable student-teacher ratio as well—making it a shining star for education in the McCormick Ranch neighborhood. While serving over 600 students in the Scottsdale Unified School District, the school prides itself on celebrating diversity, encouraging creativity, instilling thoughtful traditions, and supporting continuous growth and lifelong learning. The school has also been a recipient of the Arizona Educational Foundation A+ School of Excellence award. Among its most notable offerings are accelerated math, gifted services and an Enrichment Zone where children can participate in programs for Spanish, coding and STEM, dance, karate, cheer, creative writing, golf, art and sports. Additionally, fourth and fifth graders can take up a musical instrument in strings or band, where they might also cheer on their fellow Cochise Elementary Bobcats—many of whom enjoy the green, park-like setting just outside the school doors.
