Back to Basics

Carden places a strong emphasis on language arts and mathematics within a values based curriculum. Small class sizes enable the teachers to provide an exceptional program aligned with the Arizona State Standards implemented through the national Carden Instruction Method. In addition to the "Back to Basics" structure in the core subjects, the school provides instruction in French, Health, Physical Education, Computers, Art and Music

School Vision

The Carden Vision is comprehensive. It focuses on a safe, fun and intimate campus to which students willingly and enthusiastically attend and about which parents feel secure and comfortable. It encompasses small classes that foster a family-type environment in which every student can grow commensurate with his ability. It includes a visionary administration that sets and maintains high academic standards for all students, and encourages continued professional growth of all staff members. Central to this vision is a faculty that loves children, enjoys teaching, and is committed to helping their students master the Carden, State, and National Curriculum Standards, as well as their own continued professional growth.

30th Anniversary:
Carden of Tucson had its beginning in September 1980 at the Tucson North Stake Center as a private Christian school. On September 4, 1984, it moved to its present day site. In April 1999, Carden was granted a charter and became a charter school. This year Carden celebrated 30 years of educating Arizona's finest. The 30th Celebration was a huge success for all ofthose in attendance for the joyous occasion.
