A Safe and Positive Learning Environment
Our primary goal at The Center for Educational Excellence (CEE) is to encourage our students to model positive behaviors. Our school has conduct goals that students are expected to meet, and the classrooms have conduct goals as well. The staff and students have a right to work and learn in a nurturing, motivating, challenging and positive environment. Each student and teacher is responsible for creating and maintaining acceptable behavior. The Center for Educational Excellence emphasizes citizenship and social skills by focusing on the following general expectations, which we call "The Three Rs":

Respect, Responsibility, and Resourcefulness

Curriculum Philosophy
CEE has adopted a curriculum that all the teachers follow when planning their lessons. Curriculum objectives have been established for each grade level in the areas of reading, language arts, math, science, social studies, health, art, music, technology and physical education. Our objectives correspond with the Arizona Academic Standards set by the Department of Education, and also with the Arizona Student Achievement Program. CEE will enhance or modify the curriculum to meet the individual needs of each student. Parents are welcome to review the Arizona Academic Standards document for further information.
