There were 46 multiracial students enrolled in Greenlee County schools in the 2022-23 school year, a 27.8% increase over from the 36 multiracial students in the previous school year, according to the Arizona Department of Education.

Data showed that Greenlee County welcomed 1,912 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, multiracial students made up 2.4% of the student body making them the second least represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the five schools in Greenlee County, Metcalf Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of multiracial students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 21 students, making up 2.7% of the school's total student body.

In 2022 Arizona had roughly one teacher for every 19 students, compared to the national average of one teacher for 16 students. Teachers handling a higher number of students was found to have negative consequences for students' school performance.

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.
