Dear Families,

Every day, I am more and more proud of our students and staff. As you know, DCMS has earned an “A” rating from the Arizona Department of Education. But did you know we were ranked #67 from all 1370 schools (excluding alternative schools) in Arizona and #54 in Maricopa County. This is based on total points earned. 

Additionally, SUSD was also rated as an “A” school district with almost all school earning an “A” or “B”. To add a bow to these achievements. our very own Redfield Elementary was ranked #3. Click here to find these ranks and even more information!


All the best,
