See top schools in SurpriseThe Valley Vista High School campus in Surprise, Arizona, is home to the public career and technical education (CTE) program West-MEC. It is part of the Western Maricopa Education Center (West-MEC) and mostly works with high school juniors and seniors from partner districts, such as Dysart Unified School District. Students go to West-MEC part-time while still going to their home high school. This lets them combine traditional schoolwork with hands-on training for a career. The student-teacher ratio is about 24:1, which helps with structured learning in the classroom and in the lab. About 32% of students are good at math and about 42% are good at reading (ELA). However, the student's home high school usually reports academic proficiency. Students take Arizona state tests and the SAT or ACT to get ready for college. Overall, West-MEC – Valley Vista High School is known for its practical career training, focus on getting students ready for the workforce, and strong pathways to certifications and jobs. This makes it a great choice for students who want to learn technical and applied skills.
