It serves the cities of El Mirage and Surprise, and a small portion of Waddell and Glendale near Luke Air Force Base. HistoryThe district was founded by Nathaniel Dysart (died 1957) who was a rancher in the valley[5]. The district itself, the main facility, and Dysart road (which runs from Peoria to Avondale) are all named after him. Prior to 2001, the district had only 5 elementary schools, and 1 high school.[6] However, due to the exponential growth of the City of Surprise (and El Mirage), the district became one of the fastest growing districts in Arizona. In the 2000s, the district built at least 1 school per year. By the end of the 2000s, the district had a total of 24 schools. In 2013 however, 1 elementary school was closed due to low numbers and reopened as the current location of Sundown Mountain, the district's alternative school.[7] SchoolsK-8 schools

Information TechnologyIn December 2009, Dysart Unified School District became the first Arizona School District to switch nearly one-third, or 3,000 of their desktop computer systems to a Linux based operating system from the proprietary Microsoft Windows. The executive director of business services for the district estimated that the switch saved the district nearly $108,000 in what would have been used to pay for an annual license fee for the Windows OS and Office software. The upgraded systems were approximately five to six years old, and were said to be too old to invest in upgrades to the latest Microsoft product. After revisions in April 2010, the Arizona Department of Education now requires public and charter schools to consider free and open source software in development of new IT plans.[8] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://ballotpedia.org/Dysart_Unified_School_District,_Arizona |title=DUSD Information|website=ballotpedia.org |date= |accessdate=2018-12-25}} 2. ^1 2 {{Cite web|url=https://www.dysart.org/sites/default.aspx?pgid=27|website=dysart.org| title=Meet the Superintendent|access-date=2018-12-25}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.dysart.org/sites/default.aspx?pgid=27|website=dysart.org| title=Meet the Superintendent|access-date=2018-12-25}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://dysart.org/Schools |title=DUSD Schools |website=dysart.org |date= |accessdate=2018-12-25}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.historyadventuring.com/2016/04/the-man-that-dysart-road-is-named-after.html|title=The man that Dysart Road is named after|website=www.historyadventuring.com|access-date=2018-01-16}} 6. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.dysart.org/schools/schools.html|title=Dysart Unified School District No.89 - Schools|date=2006-02-18|access-date=2018-01-16|deadurl=bot: unknown|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20060218063540/http://www.dysart.org/schools/schools.html|archivedate=2006-02-18|df=}} 7. ^{{Cite news|url=http://archive.azcentral.com/community/surprise/articles/20130321desert-moon-closing-elementary-school.html|title=Desert Moon in Surprise closing as elementary school|work=azcentral.com|access-date=2018-01-16}} 8. ^{{cite web|last=Wang|first=Amy|title=Dysart Unified School District saves more than $100,000 by switching computer operating systems|url=http://www.azcentral.com/community/surprise/articles/2010/12/27/20101227dysart-unified-school-district-saves-monday.html|publisher=azcentral.com|accessdate=27 March 2011}} Dysart Unified School District https://www.dysart.org/ 2 : School districts in Maricopa County, Arizona|Education in Surprise, Arizona |
