What people are saying

by a parent
Friday, April 9, 2010

Jefferson Park Elementary is a small school currently developing our First Choice program, which integrates math, science, and the humanities. We have partnerships with the American Radio Relay League and the University of Arizona. Our diverse population - 75% minority, with all ethnicities represented – is one of our greatest assets. Jefferson Park has community atmosphere and central location near the University and downtown that help attract families. About half of our students choose to attend through open enrollment. The staff, students and parents are all working together to make this an excellent school. Close Quote
