Summary:
The Sierra Vista Unified District consists of 9 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. The district serves the Sierra Vista area and provides a range of educational opportunities for students from kindergarten through 12th grade.
Within the district, a few schools stand out for their strong academic performance. Huachuca Mountain Elementary School and Village Meadows Elementary School consistently rank among the top elementary schools in the district and state, with high proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Meanwhile, Buena High School, the district's only high school, has a solid academic track record, with 11th-grade proficiency rates exceeding the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics, as well as a high 4-year graduation rate.
However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the district's schools, with some struggling to meet state standards. Additionally, the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, a proxy for socioeconomic status, varies widely, ranging from 31.97% at Buena High School to 74.58% at Carmichael Elementary School. These findings suggest the need for a closer examination of factors contributing to these differences, such as resource allocation, teaching quality, and student support, in order to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the Sierra Vista Unified District.
