SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (Nov. 7, 2024) – Scottsdale Unified School District (SUSD) looks forward to meeting families from near and far at its first-ever Education Expo on November 21 at Coronado High School, located at 7501 E. Virginia Ave., Scottsdale.

From 5 – 8 p.m. that day, all 30 SUSD schools will be on hand in the main gymnasium to answer questions from community families, whether they’re new to Scottsdale, are school ‘shopping’ or previously have had students enrolled with the district.  The event is also geared toward current SUSD families, since Arizona’s open enrollment law makes it easy for their students to attend schools other than the ones to which they are assigned geographically.

At information sessions that will be offered in nearby classrooms, families can also learn about specialized programs that are particular to a school, such as Laguna Elementary’s STEAM program, drone coding at Tonalea Middle School and the new Fire Science Academy that will open next school year at Coronado.

Programs that stretch across SUSD learning communities, such as International Baccalaureate at Anasazi Elementary, Mountainside Middle and Desert Mountain High schools; the AVID college and career readiness program at Tavan Elementary, Echo Canyon K-8, Ingleside Middle and Arcadia High schools; and the Scottsdale Math & Science Academy at Saguaro High School that will expand to Mohave Middle School in 2025-26, will present to families interested in learning about the many aspects of SUSD that make it unique among Arizona school districts.

Representatives from district departments and offices – Career and Technical Education, Special Education, Teaching and Learning, Enrollment, Community Education, Gifted Learning, Athletics, Transportation, Native American Education, Nutrition, and Support Services, for example – will be there, too, to share information.

SUSD is an ‘A’ rated school district by the Arizona State Board of Education.

“We believe in providing families with the tools necessary to make the best educational decisions for their children,” said SUSD’s award-winning superintendent, Dr. Scott Menzel.  “The SUSD Education Expo brings all our schools, programs, and resources together in one place, making it easy for families to learn more about our district, ask questions and feel confident when they choose SUSD.”
