About the school

Queen Creek Junior High serves 7th and 8th graders and calls its approach "The Wildcat Way." The school's activities page lists a wide set of electives and clubs, including band, orchestra, chorus, art, a multi-media class, family and consumer science, and yearbook. Two classes are listed as high school credit opportunities: Algebra and Honors Spanish.

Students can also join National Junior Honor Society, Student Council, Lead Out Loud, Where Everybody Belongs (WEB), the HOSA health occupations club, Mathletics, the geography and spelling bees, and science camp. The athletics page lists 7th and 8th grade boys basketball and girls softball, plus cross country and tennis. The school also uses Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS).

Career planning starts here too. Through the Education and Career Action Plan (ECAP), students complete career interest surveys and course planning in 7th and 8th grade using the Arizona Career Information System, with parents reviewing the next year's classes. A parent-teacher-student organization (PTSO) supports staff and school events.

Daily details from the FAQ: buses run for students in the school's boundaries, there is no uniform but there is a dress code, and phones and other electronics are not allowed on campus. Breakfast and lunch can be paid ahead through the district's online system.

Attendance boundaries and enrollment

QCUSD lets families find their assigned junior high by address with its school site locator. Always confirm the assignment for the exact home with the district, because boundaries can change and a home near a school is not guaranteed to be assigned to it. New students start with the district's enrollment process, and the school has an enrollment inquiry form on its site.

Families who live outside the boundary can apply through QCUSD open enrollment. The district says acceptance depends on available space, forms must be in before the school year starts, and open-enrollment families provide their own transportation. QCUSD also runs a second junior high, Newell Barney College Preparatory, which the district describes as an accelerated curriculum school.

The district does not publish a list of subdivisions for this school, so check by address. Queen Creek communities I cover include Hastings Farms, Sossaman and Encanterra. For larger lots, see Queen Creek homes on 1+ acre and Queen Creek horse properties, or browse Queen Creek homes with pools.
