Why Families Choose Archway Cicero

• Small-Class Advantage. Fewer desks per room—paired with our signature two-teacher model—mean every child receives the attentive instruction and steady encouragement that spark confidence and curiosity.

• Broad, Well-Rounded Foundations. Students master reading, writing, math, science, poetry, and history while also studying Spanish, creating art and music, and enjoying P.E.—a well-rounded education that forms both mind and heart.

• Joy & Order Campus Culture. Uniforms, screen-free classrooms, and orderly routines create space for confident voices, courteous behavior, and genuine delight in learning.

• Virtue in Daily Practice. Through classic stories and purposeful habits, children grow in honesty, perseverance, and respect—virtues woven into lessons, recess games, and service projects alike.

• Central Scottsdale Community. Our location brings together families who value academic excellence and cultural diversity, forging strong partnerships between parents and teachers.
