TOLLESON, AZ — University High School in the Tolleson Union High School District is receiving national recognition for its high test scores and academic rigor.
“When we’re investing in our students' future, we want to send them off to college and feel good that they are going to be successful, that they are prepared academically, socially, and that we know they’re going to do well,” said Vickie Landis, the principal of the high school. “They have this unique experience where they are a part of a small learning community but also part of a 6A high school experience. They get the best of both worlds,” Landis said.
“University High School has a 95% persistence rate. What that means is when our students go to their freshman year in college, about 95% of them return their sophomore year,” she said.
