About Us

Welcome to Paso Verde School – Home of the Pumas

We have a very dedicated staff at PVS. We are working to engage our students in each inquiry based lesson as we focus on student learning and as we implement IB and STEAM to achieve academic excellence. In addition, we want students to know how the knowledge they obtain in school, relates to everyday life.

At Paso Verde, we are striving to build a community of lifelong learners, and we are determined to meet the needs of all of our students in a respectful, safe, and positive environment. We do this by inspiring, encouraging, and motivating our students to do their best in an academic setting and in life.

We believe all students should have access to a quality education that supports them, celebrates and embraces diversity, and serves each student equitably. We incorporate differentiated instruction, environmentally sound practices, a technologically rich, standards-based curriculum, and innovative lesson plans that actively engage our students by recognizing a variety of learning styles. Our parents, staff, and community members collaborate to advance these goals.
