Summary

Point locations and basic information for preschools, K-12 schools, and district offices in the state Arizona. The data are created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems for a variety of planning and analysis purposes. These data do not represent a legal record.

Description

MAG develops annually updated point locations and basic information for preschools, K-12 schools, and district offices in the state Arizona. The dataset includes public and private PreK-12 school locations. While some preschools are included, this is not a comprehensive statewide dataset for preschools. The dataset was built in collaboration with Arizona Department of Education (ADE), Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ), and Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG). The dataset is a general reference for schools or "learning sites" in the state of Arizona.
