Children in both the full and half day program stay for lunch. Nap/Rest time follows lunch. Children who nap may do so, and those that don’t will have a quiet/rest time. Cots/mats are available in the classroom. Nap is followed by a variety of activities, including, dramatic play, reading, games, music and art

Children must be potty trained as we are not licensed for diapering. Class size is limited to insure that the learning environment is safe, attentive, and of the highest quality.

TUSD Community Education School's views children as feeling, thinking, creative, and growing individuals. We provide a supportive community within which children expand their learning and development. We believe that for learning to be effective and retained, it must be fun. At school, children move in a miniature version of the larger society in which we live. Our goal is to provide them with an opportunity to test themselves, and develop in a safe, non-threatening environment full of choices and challenges. We support and encourage them to become problem-solving, sensitive, contribution, and responsible members of the "school community" as initial preparation for adulthood in a more complex society. As part of Tucson Unified School District, we adhere to the district Mission, Vision, Strategic Priorities, and Values Policy.
