On behalf of Queen Creek Unified School District #95, we welcome you to the Queen Creek Schools and our website. Our boundary area includes the Town of Queen Creek and extends north of Williams Gateway and east of the General Motors Proving Grounds. The district encompasses forty-six square miles. Queen Creek is a bedroom community in the central part of Arizona. Our town has many amenities for growing families and is a short commute from the Phoenix metropolitan area. We’re proud of our small town feel and family atmosphere—a place where you know your neighbors by name.
Queen Creek School District consists of four elementary schools, one middle school, one junior high school, and one high school. Our enrollment is just over 5,200 students. We offer a quality educational program with our top-notch educators and support staff. Our students continue to exceed state and national averages on our achievement test scores. We are dedicated to providing a challenging learning experience for our students in a loving, supportive environment. Queen Creek Schools is a great place to be.
Welcome to Queen Creek Unified School District and the 2012-2013 school year. Our boundary area includes the Town of Queen Creek and extends north of Williams Gateway to Warner Road and east of the General Motors Proving Grounds to Meridian Road. The district encompasses 46 square miles.
We are a district of approximately 5,200 pre-school – 12th grade students and are very proud of the high standards of achievement attained by our students and staff. All of our schools have earned grades from the AZ Department of Education of A or B. Learning is truly our #1 priority.
Thanks to the support of the Queen Creek community in passing our $15 M Capital Bond in November 2010, all of our classrooms have state of the art technology. Every classroom has interactive boards, projectors, responders, and document cameras. These technology tools better enable our staff to prepare our students to be successful for the 21st century workforce. We feel very fortunate to have great support from our parents and community as this partnership is crucial to our providing an excellent education for students.
I wish everyone a successful 2012-2013 school year, and thank you for choosing QCUSD as your district of choice.
Sincerely,
Mr. Tom Lindsey Superintendent
