There are three level one Wilson certified teachers on staff, two of whom are currently pursuing level two designations as certified teachers. Additionally, there is one Arizona Master Teacher on staff.
Verrado Elementary School is the first in the district to incorporate Professional Learning Communities (PLC), Positive Behavior Support (PBIS), and Response to Intervention (RTI).
