In a quiet residential neighborhood setting anchored by Mountain View Park, Kyrene de la Paloma Arts Integration Academy welcomes and inspires more than 400 children in pre-kindergarten through fifth grade, as part of the Kyrene School District covering Chandler and south metro Phoenix.
Here, the faculty fully integrate the arts into the curriculum with a focus on helping students explore and spur creativity in ways that elevate their success in all core subjects. And the approach helps the academy rank among the top 15% of elementary schools in Arizona, with students achieving reading and math test scores above the district averages and well above the state averages.
And with the only school in the district to have its own state-of-the-art amphitheater, the academy helps students learn performing arts and develop self-confidence in the public sphere, with an added bonus of creating a local gathering spot for the entire surrounding community through plays and student-focused events.
Other notable offerings include a gifted program, a dual language program, Native American programs, and enrichment classes, among many others.
