Spring 2025

Dear Tanque Verde Community,

Our district will celebrate its 140th anniversary in 2026. As we reflect on our rich history, we are proud of our student’s academic and personal achievements and grateful for the unwavering support of our community.

Our mission is to provide a world-class education that empowers all students to reach their full potential. Our vision is to equip graduates for mastery founded upon excellence and integrity.

We are pleased to share that Tanque Verde Unified School District is one of only 1% of districts nationwide where students are learning at higher levels now than before the pandemic started, according to the Education Recovery Scorecard, a research project from Harvard and Stanford.

In their most recent report (March 2025), the Education Recovery Scorecard concluded that "Relative to 2019, students in your district are 0.80-grade equivalents ahead in math and 0.07-grade equivalents ahead in reading."

In other words, the data indicates our students started the 2024-2025 school year with 13 days of learning ahead in English Language Arts (ELA,) and 144 days ahead in math from where they started in 2019. 

This is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our students, teachers, and staff. We are proud of our progress, but we know there is still more work to be done.

The Governing Board has set ambitious goals for 2030, which will guide and lead our students to a passing rate above 80% on state achievement assessments. All students can demonstrate mastery at high proficiency levels, and we are committed to providing the resources and support necessary to make that happen.

We are confident that, by working together, we can continue to build on our success and ensure that all Tanque Verde Unified School District students receive the high-quality education they deserve.

Scott Hagerman, Ed.D.
