Among these students, nearly 2,300 are English Learners. Over 7,500 use our current Online curriculum. TUSD is also home to Two-Way Dual Language programs in three K–8 schools, two middle schools, and two high schools.

As a district, TUSD is recognized for its diversity and for providing more unique learning opportunities than any other district in the region. Multicultural education is a core value, and the district emphasizes equitable and rigorous instruction to ensure all students succeed.

TUSD has an extensive Credit Recovery Program at all High Schools during the school year and in the summer. The success of these programs is highly dependent on the quality of our online curriculum. We have committed to the quality of these programs by developing a Digital Learning Pathways Operational Manual. This manual is provided as an attachment for context.

In addition, the district operates a large comprehensive Virtual school, Tucson Unified Virtual Academy, TUVA, serving over 1,300 students. This curriculum will serve as the core curriculum for TUVA grades 6-12.
