Background information

Around 1200 students currently attend Mesa Verde High School.

Mesa Verde has a highly active AVID program, a reading and academic skills program which serves all grade levels at the school. Mesa Verde also provides additional real world work experience (and academic credit) to junior and senior students through the Regional Occupation Program (ROP). Mesa Verde has a strong academic emphasis, and for the last four years, has increased its Academic Performance Index (API) score. This scholarly emphasis helps many graduates continue on in post-secondary and professional education.[2]
