The district currently operates fifteen elementary schools, three middle schools, three comprehensive high schools, one continuation high school, and one adult school. Coachella Valley Unified School District has a growing reputation for innovative programs and outstanding staff. The district has a large Latino and English Learner population that has made tremendous improvements in student achievement in the past few years. The Coachella Valley is a valley in Southern California which extends for approximately 45 mi in Riverside County southeast from the San Bernardino Mountains to the northern shore of the Salton Sea. Coachella Valley Unified School District is located about 30 miles east of Palm Springs off Highway 86. The valley connects with the Greater Los Angeles area to the west via the San Gorgonio Pass, a major transportation corridor that includes I-10 and the Union Pacific Railroad. The valley is part of the 13th-largest metropolitan area in the United States, the Inland Empire metropolitan area. The famous desert resort cities of Palm Springs and Palm Desert lie in the Coachella Valley. The Coachella Valley is the second largest sub-region in the Inland Empire, after the Greater San Bernardino Area which may be due to the number of seasonal residents in the winter months which at peak times may surpass 100,000 with another 3.5 million annual conventioneers and tourists.
