Nosotros Academy K-12 is an independently operated, tuition-free public charter school with an open-admission policy. Our goal is to get all students College and Career Ready!

We do this through our three programs: (1) Traditional K-8, (2) Traditional 9-12 High School and (3) Independent Learning 9-12 High School Program

Nosotros Academy K-12 is its own educational institution and therefore is not part of a school district. This means Nosotros Academy does not follow the school calendar, policies or curriculum of other schools or school districts. Nosotros Academy abides by the rules and regulations set forth by the Department of Education and State Board for Charter Schools and reports directly to these two groups. Most importantly, there are no boundaries regulating enrollment to attend Nosotros Academy K-12. Therefore, students may attend Nosotros Academy regardless of their address or location.

Nosotros Academy follows state-mandated rules and regulations and reports to the Department of Education and State Board. As a public charter school Nosotros Academy:

  • Provides services to children who don’t know English (English Language Learners)

The enrollment policies and procedures follow the rules established by the Arizona State Board for Charter Schools and Arizona Department of Education as defined in A.R.S. 15-184.

All parents are welcome to fill out an application in order to enroll their child. No tuition or fee is charged for attending Nosotros Academy K-12, and admission is not based on ethnicity, national origin, gender, income level, disabling condition or proficiency in the English language.

During Open Enrollment, once the number of applications to Nosotros Academy K-12 exceeds the number of available seats so that the program, class, or grade level has reached capacity, then there will be a lottery to determine enrollment and wait-list numbers.

Nosotros Academy K-12 is a family centered school. This means that most of the K-12 students are related to each other causing a sense of responsibility, good behavior and orderliness.

They say it is very convenient!

Each classroom is equipped with a certified teacher AND a full-time teacher assistant.
