Paradise Valley is one of the largest elementary schools in Casper. Staff members believe in differentiated instruction, and teachers strive to provide intentional learning at each child’s individual level. Teachers use the NCSD Essential Curriculum to plan and guide learning targets. Brain research strategies are implemented throughout the school to enhance the learning experience for all children. Paradise Valley believes students learn through experience and inquiry.

Paradise Valley is home to the district’s first Dual Language Immersion program, offering Mandarin Chinese in K-5th grade. With DLI, children are exposed to bi-lingual learning when their minds are developmentally best able to successfully acquire a second language. Instruction is divided between two high-quality, creative classrooms: one English; one Mandarin. Students are taught math, literacy, social studies, and science in Mandarin for half of the day. The other half of the day is spent learning language arts and core subject review in English.

Parents must attend an orientation session prior to acceptance into the Dual Language Program.

Please contact Central Enrollment at 253-5450 for more information on these sessions.

Paradise Valley also offers traditional classroom learning that also focuses on Math, literacy, social studies and science.
