English language arts includes reading, writing, listening, speaking and language. Deer Valley Unified School District implements the Arizona College and Career Ready Standards, which ask students to read informational stories and literature, as well as more complex texts that provide facts and background knowledge. Students are challenged and asked questions that push them to refer back to what they’ve read. This stresses critical-thinking, problem-solving, and analytical skills that are required for success in college, career and life.
