Deer Valley Unified District


Summary:

The Deer Valley Unified District in Arizona is home to 41 schools, including 31 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, 5 high schools, and 2 alternative schools. The district serves a diverse student population and exhibits a range of academic performance across its schools.

Several schools in the district stand out for their exceptional academic achievements. Mountain Ridge High School ranks among the top 52 high schools in Arizona, with a 97.9% 4-year graduation rate and strong proficiency in English Language Arts and Mathematics. At the elementary level, Highland Lakes School, Stetson Hills School, and Gavilan Peak School are among the top-performing schools in the state, with impressive proficiency rates across multiple grade levels.

Factors such as student demographics, socioeconomic backgrounds, and per-student spending may contribute to these disparities. The district's alternative schools, like Aspire Deer Valley's Online Academy, also face unique challenges, with lower graduation rates and higher dropout rates compared to the traditional schools.
