History
Anaverde Hills School opened in August 2005 on a temporary site. In August of 2013, the school was relocated on the permanent site. In April of 2010 Anaverde Hills Elementary School was named a California Distinguished School based on the outstanding academic achievement during the 2008-2009 school year. Anaverde Hills has 21 general education classrooms and three SDC classrooms ranging from Kindergarten through sixth grade, a resource and speech teacher, an EL aide, and a librarian.
The school enrollment is approximately 515 students, in which the majority of the students live walking distance from the school site. Anaverde Hills is supported by a dedicated Parent Teacher Student Association, which provides academic opportunities as well as a foundational component to the traditions and culture of the school.
Consistent school-wide practices are in place to raise academic achievement in every classroom at Anaverde Hills and include use of the core curriculum as first instruction, increased student engagement, and incorporating clear learning objectives. With the implementation of the Common Core State Standards, additional District initiatives include critical reading and writing across all subject areas, inquiry grounded in evidence from text, rigor and real-world application across all content areas, and the integration of technology.
Anaverde Hills School is proud to introduce the unique A-STEP program. The program includes the AVID program integrated from kindergarten through 6th grade; an emphasis on science with the new science lab; increased instruction using technology such as Smart Boards, iPads, chrome books, and student interactive systems; an emphasis on curriculum exploration through hands-on learning and oral language development; and project-based learning opportunities.
