About Copper Trails

Welcome to Copper Trails

Copper Trails School first opened its doors to students in the Avondale Elementary School District in 2008.  Since that time, our campus has grown to a preschool through eighth grade campus of approximately more than 1,000 students. As a school with an arts focus, we believe that every student has the capacity to impact the space around them through positivity, creativity, and ingenuity. 

We believe that every student will develop in academics, humanities and character to positively impact their world.  We work as a community to provide every child with learning experiences and opportunities that allow them to reach their greatest potential.  We truly believe that all children are capable of success - No Exceptions!

Mission

At Copper Trails, every student will develop in academics and character to positively impact their world.

Vision

All students at Copper Trails will be able to know what they are learning, where they are in their learning, how they will know they have learned it, and articulate their progress to others to demonstrate ownership of their learning to become visible learners. Visible learners at Copper Trails demonstrate these dispositions in their learning: risk-taking, self-motivation, problem-solving, perseverance, and creativity.
