About Pima Unified School District

Pima Unified uses a clear three-campus sequence. Pima Elementary serves kindergarten through sixth grade. Students spend grades seven and eight at Pima Junior High, then continue to Pima High for grades nine through twelve. They change campuses at seventh and ninth grade while remaining under one governing district through graduation. Gila Valley Learning Center adds a separate setting for students whose schedule, credit progress, or instructional needs call for another route. The small district concentrates most athletics, advanced coursework, and activities in the junior-high and high-school settings while preserving one local K–12 governance system.
