Peoria Accelerated High School Story
Safe, Challenged, Ready is the motto of Peoria Accelerated High School. Peoria Accelerated offers a safe and inviting campus for students coming to learn and has challenged students in its classrooms since the school opened in 1999. Peoria Accelerated is preparing students for life after high school; whether a student chooses to go directly into the workforce or attend a secondary learning institution, they will be ready.
Students come to the campus for various reasons, not just because it is located next to Dairy Queen on 89th and Peoria Avenue. Some come to graduate early, catch up on missing credits, or to experience a smaller school. They may have just heard from friends and family about how the school cares about each of its students individually. But the goal is always the same--they want to graduate from an AdvancEd Accredited school with highly qualified, engaging, and friendly teachers.
Peoria Accelerated has a technology focus in the classroom and throughout campus. All teachers look to enhance student learning by allowing students to use the latest electronic equipment, newest apps, and cutting-edge student interactive software. Peoria Accelerated is not a computer based school, but a hard working ¨Real School¨ that embraces the use of technology in learning in and out of the classroom. The Peoria Accelerated teaching staff does not take “Days off.” Each and every minute of the learning day is important, our classes work hard from the first bell at 7:50AM until the last bell of the day at 5:20PM. Faculty and staff at Peoria Accelerated want to help students understand this quote, “You don’t get what you deserve, you get what you earn.”
Students come from around the west valley to attend entertaining classes at Peoria Accelerated. They arrive by school bus, city bus, automobile, bike, or foot from as far away as the White Tank Mountains in the west, Pinnacle Peak in the north, I-17 in the east, Desert Sky Mall in the south, and some just a few steps away from their front door. No matter the distance, 500 students call Peoria Accelerated home for the place they want to earn a state certified high school diploma.
Students come to Peoria Accelerated because of the four day school week Monday through Thursday, stay because of the Friday tutoring, field trips, and many student clubs, and return to talk about the positive relationships, memories, and accomplishments they experienced while being a Bulldog on the campus of Peoria Accelerated.
