The traditional learning model is a huge plus in my opinion. Bringing our kids to Pima was one of the best decisions we have made. I highly recommend the school.

The teachers genuinely care about the futures of the students and go way out of their way to give the kids the best education and school experience. They also have smaller class sizes so they are able to give the kids the attention that they need. I'm so grateful for everyone at Pima who makes it great. My child loves going to school everyday and looks forward to being there which is something I never felt as a child. Highly recommend this school if you're in the area!

I came here to get a phone number and saw a 1 star review moving from Norfolk, VA and California to…read moreAZ I can tell you that this school is not a 1 star. Is it a solid 5 I would say, so here's why: 1.Mandatory parent participation and volunteer hours(forces you to be more involved in the school) 2. A+ rated ( better than not being rated right?) 3. Activities at school during the school year like a Fun Run to raise money, Water day where there is outside stations and parent volunteers, Trunk or treat hosted by the staff and parents with a DJ and food Trucks, In Class plays where parents could come watch and record (pre-covid) 4. Teachers like Mrs.Stevenson and Mrs.Lombardi kind hearted caring and eager to teach. Are there some things I would change yes, any school has things that need to be improved but overall this is a great school if public school is the route you take

This school used to be the top rated school in TSD. However, the principal Amy Bemis is driving it…read moreinto the ground. After she was hired, half of the staff left. I decided to keep my son enrolled after a teacher friend said he should be fine. That was a mistake. A student who bullied my son for three years threatened my son's life and Amy decided it was appropriate to offer my son one solution - mediation. This was after I informed her of the bullying for three year, which she magically "forgot." She thought it was appropriate that after someone threatens to kill my son to try to teach him "it's okay, let's work it out." When I brought up issues, she'd tell me "I didn't bring them up right after they happened so she won't do anything" in front of her boss, who was kind enough to agree that parents can bring up issues when they feel it's appropriate. If you do enroll your child here, Amy forgets everything, so I strongly recommend you keep an email record as proof. On top of that, when I brought my minority husband in to discuss issues, Amy gave him the nastiest looks which we both witnessed but kept quiet about. When bringing up these issues to the district, they didn't care. This experience was so bad for my family we're now leaving the public education realm and will be going to a charter school.

The teachers treat each student equally…read more The school has Great communication from teachers to parents about their kid(s) and if a parent can't come to the school they can communicate with the teachers by using ClassDojo. The teachers are amazing to my kids Ms.Oliver, Miss. Bristow, Ms. Roberts, Ms. Ortega, Mrs. Oertel, and Miss. Brown encourage my kids to do better be better and encourage them that they can accomplish anything if they put their mind to it and make good decision making. I see a huge difference from my kids since online learning due to Covid-19 with their learning and self-esteem. The school does some fun festive activities like wacky wheel day, water day, pajama day, and video game party day are some fun festive activities that the whole school participates with parents. Miss Ireland and Miss Eaststep know their students well and they encourage their students to make good decision. If you have any questions or concerns Miss Ireland and Miss Eaststep are always on it and make sure all your questions and concerns are answered they do an amazing job running the school. I do recommend AmariSchools to family and friends I have Four kids that attend AmeriSchools and now I have a nephew that attends the school now and we are going to keep attending AmariSchools until they graduate eighth grade!! I strongly recommend AmeriSchools!!!

The current principal, Ms. Cervantes, is responsive and creative and has brought in some incredible teachers who are willing to go above and beyond for their students. The positive energy radiates through everyone and this school is safe place where children thrive. A bonus for this school is that they support families with children that may have 504 plans or IEPs. They take these seriously and have additional support for ALL children. It has been a godsend to not fear sending my younger two boys to school and having their spirits broken by the educational system. I highly recommend this school for anyone looking for smaller class sizes, high quality education, and support.

Christ the King Catholic School has been amazing for our son. He attended one of the best public…read moreelementary schools in Mesa Zito Ishikawa because of where we live but their academic curriculum was extremely repetitive and unchallenging. To make matters worse he was competing all over the country in Quarter Midget racing for a National Title and fighting with the school tooth and nail all the way. The administration didn't care because of his absences to compete even though his grades were perfect, all A's, work completed early before we left, and every extra credit assignment offered throughout the year completed. His teacher was amazing, but the principle and the administration only cared about his but in their seat. So, we looked for a more challenging school that had value in academic excellence and an understanding of keeping a schedule with his training and racing regiment and boy did we find it in CTK! CTK listened to his wishes to be able to compete and to have his school behind his racing aspiration and we worked out a solid plan together. When he came in, he was behind their 3rd grade level but within 6 hard weeks he caught up and never looked back. There is a ton of love and inspiration with the entire staff at this school unequivocally. If you want your child to have solid American values at school centered around Christ with a ultra-demanding curriculum to prepare them for a solid college preparatory school we have found the place. Without a doubt his workload is very demanding, but the results have been astonishing with 3rd and 4th grade now. 5 Stars for sure.

Great loving environment for kids. The staff is fantastic! My child loves it here!read more
