Student success doesn’t happen by chance. Across Scottsdale Unified School District, instructional coaches, specialists and coordinators work alongside teachers and schools to provide expertise, resources and support tailored to the diverse needs of our learners.

From gifted education and multilingual learning to early childhood, academic support, behavioral support and social-emotional learning, these teams help teachers strengthen instruction and create learning environments where every student can learn, grow and reach their full potential.

Through coaching, professional learning and direct consultation, they are helping make a difference for students and teachers across SUSD every day.

At SUSD’s 2026 College & Career Fair last weekend, hundreds of students and families explored more than 130 exhibitors representing colleges and universities, skilled trades, career training, military service, SUSD Career and Technical Education programs and local employers.

Exhibitors came from right here in the Valley and as far away as Canada and the United Kingdom!

Students asked questions, explored new possibilities and gathered information to help them take their next step. Workshops on financial aid, FAFSA and college admissions gave families practical tools, while community organizations shared additional resources for career and employment exploration.

There’s no single path to a successful future. The College & Career Fair gave students the opportunity to explore what’s possible and start finding the path that’s right for them. 🎓

Donettes alumni from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s reunited on the field during last week’s Homecoming festivities for a special performance celebrating 65 years of Coronado tradition.

They practiced all week, with alumni traveling from right here in Scottsdale and across the country to return to the field, reconnect and celebrate a program that has meant so much to generations of Coronado students.

And there’s a special piece of Donettes history you can watch, too!

The full halftime performance from Coronado’s 1976 State Championship game is now on the SUSD YouTube page, giving you a look at the Donettes and the band in action 50 years ago!

All parents want their children to be successful. For parents of gifted children, that can sometimes come with added pressure to help their child reach their “full potential.”

📅 Thursday, Oct. 1
⏰ 6–7 p.m.
