Desert Canyon Elementary School is a shining example of the Scottsdale Unified School District’s success. It was recently ranked an “Excelling School,” the highest designation available for Arizona public elementary schools.
Desert Canyon currently enrolls approximately 750 Kindergarten through 5th graders and employs 43 teachers. Most grades have 5 dedicated teachers, allowing the teachers to keep small classroom sizes and focus on the highest academic expectations.
The school also supports a variety of specialties, including music, visual arts, physical education and gifted teachers to offer children a wide array of opportunities. Students are also encouraged to take part in the available after school activities, which include Math Club, Kidz Art, Chess, Elements of Music, Golf, Mad Science and more! Parents and students can also enroll for a free School Fusion account, allowing an easy way to track assignments, class websites, grades and calendars.
