About Deer Valley Unified School District
Deer Valley’s large PreK–12 network combines K–6 campuses that feed separate middle schools with many K–8 schools that keep students on one site until high school. Address defines the ordinary route, while open enrollment can substitute another campus with a different grade span and feeder pattern.
Aspire adds an online branch whose current pages mix several time layers. Its full-time enrollment page advertises K–8 enrollment and limited high-school space, and it still describes Aspire as K–12; other 2026–27 navigation emphasizes grades 7–12. All full-time placements use open enrollment.
District high-school students may instead take individual Aspire courses while remaining at their home high school. The stable distinction is between full-time Aspire, which replaces the boundary school, and part-time Aspire, which supplements an existing high-school schedule; the current website does not document full-time availability by grade consistently.
