Academy of Math and Science PHX

Q: Is there tuition?
A: AMS is a tuition-free school.

Q: What grades does AMS have?
A: AMS offers grades Kindergarten - 8th grade.

Q: My child is above grade level. How do you accommodate my child’s educational needs?
A: The majority of AMS students are performing above grade level standards determined by the Arizona Department of Education, and many new, highly-performing students fit right in. We assign students to classes based on their current mastery levels by having each student take a diagnostic test every year. For those students performing well-above grade level, AMS offers an individualized math and reading program, allowing for students to work at their own advanced pace and to be challenged on a daily basis.

Q: Are all teachers certified and highly qualified?
A: AMS has extremely high standards and expectations for all staff members. Prospective teacher candidates are evaluated for their experience, writing skills, and content knowledge in a longer than average process that includes a timed content assessment test. Out of the thousands of applications we receive, we will only hire the top 2% of candidates. All teachers at AMS, including specials (Art, Music, Computer Sciences, PE) and support staff, are considered highly-qualified as defined by the Federal No Child Left Behind Act.
