San Simon Unified District (4172)

Located along the I-10 Business Loop in San Simon, Arizona, the San Simon Unified District serves as an essential hub for public education within its remote rural community. Operating a single educational campus within the broader Sierra Vista-Douglas metropolitan area, this traditional, non-charter district maintains full operational status and delivers continuous learning pathways from kindergarten through 12th grade, alongside specialized ungraded instruction. The district offers a close-knit academic environment for a student population of 97 children, featuring an even gender distribution of 49 female and 48 male students. Demographically, the student body reflects the regional community, predominantly consisting of 58 Hispanic students and 39 White students engaged across elementary, middle, and high school grade levels.

To support its student body, the district maintains a robust operational and instructional team relative to its size, employing approximately 62 total full-time equivalent (FTE) staff members. This includes 26 FTE classroom teachers, 2.6 FTE instructional aides, and nearly 34 FTE support staff, fostering an extraordinarily favorable student-to-teacher ratio that allows for individualized guidance and tailored academic support. This substantial investment in teaching and support staff ensures that every child benefits from focused mentorship throughout their academic journey.
