Curriculum & Instruction
The future begins with the right education. Colorado River Union High School District will provide an
amazing student experience. Our curriculum will provide the balance needed to succeed. We strive to
blend academic curriculum with practical application through methodical student engagement, which
will lead to achievement for all students in our district. Our curriculum and instruction team consists of instructional coaches and the director who work together along side site administrators, and teachers to facilitate professional learning communities. The professional learning communities allow teachers to collaborate while planning, enhance curriculum, identify best practices, create common assessments, and analyze data from common assessments in an effort to ensure student success. We are committed to high levels of learning for teachers and students in an effort to foster growth and strengthen our district’s collective commitments.

Announcement:
River Valley High School is excited to announce that we are submitting an application for the Nita M. Lowey 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) program grant. If selected as a recipient we will be honored to support after school learning, educational and related activities that will complement and enhance students' academic performance and achievement of Dust Devil family.
The 21st CCLC award will be for three consecutive years, with applicants receiving 100% funding for each of the first three years of the program if the Site demonstrates Substantial Compliance (see the 21st CCLC Guidance Handbook). Substantial Compliance is defined as compliance with the substantial or essential requirements of the 21st CCLC contract that satisfies its purpose or objective. If the Site meets Substantial Compliance during the 3rd year, the funding will be continued for 2 additional years (year 4 and 5) at 75% of the original funding. Continued funding in years 4 and 5 is based on demonstrating Substantial Compliance each continuing year.
