Kindergarten
Our tuition-free, full day Kindergarten program provides your child with ample opportunities to learn and grow socially, academically, emotionally, and physically through hands-on adventures in learning. We follow the Arizona Academic Standards to help ensure a well-rounded curriculum. The Journeys ELA program and Fundations phonics program pair together for a well-rounded reading and writing curriculum. Mathematics and numeracy is taught via enVision Math using many forms of manipulatives to introduce and develop math concepts. Social Studies and Science are taught alternately with hands-on activities that engage students in community, civics, and the scientific process at their level. Students will rotate through specials classes daily (P.E., Technology, Music, and Art).
