Arizona’s school letter grades for the 2025–2026 cycle are typically released in the fall after the school year data is reviewed, and Arizona’s 2024–2025 letter grades were released in late October 2025 with appeals open until mid- November.

For the 2025–2026 school ratings, the most likely timing is late 2026 , if Arizona follows the same reporting pattern as the prior cycle. The exact release date can shift depending on when the Arizona State Board of Education finalizes accountability data and publishes the report cards.

What this means

  • Preliminary grades often appear first, then final grades follow after appeals.
  • The release is usually tied to the state’s accountability/report card calendar rather than the start of the school year.
  • If you’re tracking a specific district or school, the final posting is usually the one to watch.
