The Grand Canyon Unified School District #4 is a school district located in Grand Canyon Village in unincorporated Coconino County, Arizona, United States.

Overview[]

The district operates under the leadership of Superintendent, Dr. Shonny Bria, and Principal, Matthew Yost and five school board members.[1]

Students in grades K-12 attend school on a campus with six buildings. The school has a four-day week; elementary students K-5 attend from 7:55 to 3:45 while grades 6-12 attend from 7:55-4:00.
