  PVUSD Schools... From Good to Great! AzLEARNS Profiles Released

Gold StarThe Arizona Department of Education (ADE) has awarded Excelling labels to 22 PVUSD schools. This accomplishment means that the Paradise Valley District is one of the top performing in the state. Just five years ago, there were only seven Excelling schools in the district.

This year, the PVUSD has eight schools labeled Highly Performing, 11 receiving the designation of Performing Plus, and five called Performing. Dr. Jim Lee, superintendent, will attend staff meetings at all 22 Excelling schools, handing out lapel pins that say “Excelling,” to recognize the achievement of the highest label possible.
