Welcome to Tesseract School, one of the premier private schools in Phoenix, Arizona and the Southwest.

Tesseract is an extraordinary non-profit independent school, located in the prestigious Scottsdale/Paradise Valley area - one of the finest private schools Phoenix has to offer. This is a school with outstanding educators, a challenging curriculum and an environment that fosters the "love of learning and joy of discovery" in every child. At the same time,

we provide a safe, nurturing and collaborative learning experience.

What do we mean by this? We believe that through a fully integrated and thematic curriculum within small classes, facilitated by well-trained and committed educators, our students are stimulated to be fully engaged in their learning. When you visit the classes, you will see and feel the energy and excitement as curious minds confidently find meaning to connect to their life experiences.

We believe in educating the whole child by focusing on important core academic skills (reading, writing, listening, speaking, and computation) while enriching the curriculum throughout the preschool through grade-8 education experience, with the performing and visual arts, foreign language and leadership training. With high expectations of students and faculty, a climate of achievement, and the support of our parents, our students enjoy a unique educational experience. Our greatest gift to our children is to give them a safe environment where they are challenged to explore their interests and passions.

As our school is mission driven, I encourage you to read our Mission and Values Statements. It is our guide. Thank you for taking a closer look at our fine school - I feel confident that you will discover a superior education program for students in preschool through eighth grade, and in fall 2008, our inaugural 9th-grade class,- and one of the most exceptional private schools in the Phoenix, AZ metropolitan area!

We look forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully,

Nigel Taplin
Head of School
