Altar Valley Elementary District
Description
Altar Valley School District is seeking dynamic teachers to join our talented team. Altar Valley School District lies just southwest of Tucson, Arizona approximately 9 miles west of Ryan Airfield and 10 miles from Kitt Peak National Observatory. AVSD staff members have the good fortune to work in small, student-centered schools in a supportive, rural community where our positive efforts are making a difference in the lives of our students. AVSD is made up of two schools, Robles Elementary serves our Pre-K to 4th grade students and Altar Valley Middle School serves our 5th - 8th grade students. Both of the district's schools effectively serve high percentages of at-risk students. Most of our high school students attend Flowing Wells High School, an award winning high school on Tucson's west side. Our staff is a mix of area residents and commuters from Tucson. Our close proximity to the city enables employees to enjoy the many benefits of Tucson, including access to the University of Arizona. If you are a team player, looking for a progressive district where your ideas are valued, we are the place for you.
