About:
The peak student membership for 2008/2009 was over 31,000 students and the District continues to grow at a rate of approximately 5% annually. The District offers a well balanced elementary curriculum with small classes which concentrate on strong oral and written language programs. Due to the proximity to Mexico, a bilingual program is crucial in helping many of our students cope with language and concept acquisition. The district provides a Pre-K program as well as a gifted and talented elementary program.
Our secondary schools contain: A strong academic program at the middle and senior high school level with diversified course offerings in elective subjects and vocational education; A sound health and physical fitness for life program; An expanding computer and technology program; A Primary Prevention Program (drug abuse & alcohol); A Special Education program serving qualified students with disabilities; A Fine Arts Program (Music, Art, Dance, Drama) and an Extra-Curricular Program offering a wide array of activities suited to students' individual interests.
