Our School

Welcome to Gila Vista Jr. High School, where “we just can’t hide that Monster Pride!”

Our school has approximately 500 students in 6th through 8th grades. We aim with great success to give students a well-rounded education. We offer Advance Placement classes, band, AVID, on-site special education, before- and after-school programs, a four-period English block for EL learners, and the list keeps going. In order to provide a cohesive instructional program and consistent academic and emotional support, we organize our students into teams (Blue, Green, White, Purple, and Gold). Our tumble schedule provides a way for students and teachers to see each other throughout different times of the day.

At Gila Vista Junior High School, teachers and parents are partners in education. We are thankful for the supportive parents in our school community. Please insist on your child’s attendance, and set high expectations for him or her at home. High achievers at home are high achievers at school. We also encourage parent-teacher communication through phone calls, emails, and conferences. We’re here for you and thank you for supporting us too!
