Wickenburg is located in the northwest corner of Maricopa County, about 50 miles west of Phoenix. We are nestled in the Hassayampa River Valley, at the foot of the Bradshaw Mountains. Our beautiful area is a great place to raise a family.

  • Vulture Peak Middle School (grades 6-8)
  • Wickenburg High School (grades 9-12 students)
  • Wickenburg Academy for Achievement (an alternative school for grades 9-12)

Our District serves roughly 1450 students in grades K-12 from an area of approximately 745 square miles and over 13,000 residents from La Paz, Maricopa and Yavapai Counties. The District employs roughly 200 people.
