About Us
Our pre-kindergarten through eighth grade school of approximately 300 students is located three miles from Fort Huachuca, Arizona, the home of the famous Buffalo Soldiers. We are 25 miles from Tombstone and 60 miles south of Tucson. Our climate is a big draw to the area and helps us attract the dedicated, talented staff of which we are so proud. Our location brings a very diverse group of students, from military dependents and workers at Fort Huachuca to the children of local ranchers and suburbanites from Huachuca City.
