Tanque Verde High School

The sheriff's were called to the school in within weeks of graduation. A student had a gun in his car on campus. Said student graduated weeks later. According to the student handbook, that should not have happened. My son in terrified of this campus now.Their handbook states: A student who violates this policy by carrying or possessing a firearm shall either be placed in an alternative education program for a period of not less than one year, suspended for a period of not less than one year, or expelled and not be readmitted within a one-year period, if ever. The Governing Board, in its sole discretion, may modify the one-year duration of such disciplinary action on a case-by-case basis.A student who violates this policy by any means other than carrying or possessing a firearm shall be subject to disciplinary action, including but not limited to expulsion. Disciplinary action against a student with one or more disabilities shall be applied on a case-by-case basis in accordance with District policies and state and federal special education laws.Why didn't they deal with this situation accordingly.

Students, staff, and parents are all very nice and supportive. Minus one star because the educational standard could be higher.

Small class sizes, diversity in teaching practices, A1 quality staff that goes that extra mile, a supportive board, this district has it all!

Good Teachers. Excelling preforming High School in a very good area of Tucson. Open Enrollment allowed.
