About Vista del Sur
Accelerated Pace
Vista is an accelerated school where students work a grade level ahead in mathematics and English language arts. Science and social studies are on level, but accelerated at a faster pace as well. Students who demonstrate academic aptitude in mathematics are able to take high school level algebra and geometry. Students taking high school level courses have an opportunity to take Phoenix Union High School District’s qualifying test which determines their placement for the following year. Because of its accelerated pace, students must take an assessment prior to enrolling. Parent involvement at Vista is high as parents are expected to volunteer a minimum of seven hours each year.

An academics-based full day preschool is available at Vista del Sur for a fee.
