Sierra Vista Unified School District #68

K-8 students were instructed for 40 years in that adobe brick building located approximately where the Chili’s restaurant in Sierra Vista, AZ stands today. Shortly after the incorporation of The City of Sierra Vista, Arizona, the residents felt that their city needed its own high school and school district. Carmichael School was built in Sierra Vista in 1956 serving grades K-12, and the Sierra Vis

ta Unified School District was born. While we maintain our strong heritage, we have come a long way since our days teaching behind adobe walls. Today our school district has six elementary schools, one middle school and one high school. Our teachers are dedicated to education and have more years of experience than the Arizona state and peer group average. Additionally, 127 of our teachers hold either a masters or doctorate degree. All are highly certified ambassadors of education. The SVUSD Board is committed to a policy of nondiscrimination in relation to race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, and disability. This policy will prevail in all matters concerning staff members, students, the public, educational programs and services, and individuals with whom the Board does business. Discrimination includes harassment. Staff members or students who are found to have violated this policy are subject to discipline.
