Beaver Creek School
Beaver Creek School educates kindergarten through eighth grade students using the standards set forth by the Arizona Department of Education. We also provide free preschool to students who turn four by September 1. Please visit our Registration page for more information.
At Beaver Creek School, your child will study the core areas of English language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies along with additional instruction in physical education, art, and music. We are also proud to offer our students multiple opportunities to get involved outside the classroom through extracurricular activities.
Instructional Programs
Our teachers use curriculum calendars to guide daily instruction. Teachers write formative and benchmark assessments to help them track student learning progress throughout the year, ensuring students are meeting academic expectations. Please contact you child's teacher for more information about their curriculum calendars and their daily schedules.

Grading Scale
All students receive a report card each nine weeks based on how well students are meeting benchmark standards and completing assignments as well as the effort they put forth in the classroom every day.
Kindergarten through 3rd graders receive standards-based report cards linked to the Arizona College and Career Readiness Standards. In Grades 4–8, we base percentages on assignments, homework, and assessments.
90–100 = A
80–89 = B
70–79 = C
60–69= D
Below 60% is a failing grade
Students receive a percent grade, unless they have special grading modifications or accommodations.
