Enrollment is now open for all Queen Creek Unified School District (QCUSD) schools for the 2024–2025 school year. When you enroll your child in Queen Creek Unified schools, you're not only giving them a high-quality and rigorous education, you're giving them leadership and lifelong lessons that prepare them for the future. #ChooseQCUSD

Also opening in the 2024–2025 school year is Newell Barney College Prep, a “school of choice.” Seventh and eighth-grade students will now have the opportunity to fully immerse themselves in honors and accelerated coursework at Newell Barney College Preparatory School.
