imago dei middle school

Mission -- We seek to break the cycles of poverty through education. Imago Dei Middle School works to prepare students to live into their full potential. We prepare our students to be accepted to the best high schools, to excel academically, to graduate from high school, and to attend college or university. Imago Dei Middle School is an independent, tuition-free middle school for children of low-income families from Tucson neighborhoods. We admit children of diverse faiths, races, cultures, and cognitive profiles, believing in the Episcopal tradition that we find God in and through each other’s presence. Imago Dei’s small classes, individualized curricula, and extended school days provide rigorous academic, moral and social instruction. In close partnership with families, we are an innovative learning community that affords structured support to help students thrive. Together, we are a school that never gives up on a child. Imago Dei challenges students to discover and develop the fullness of their individual gifts. We seek to prepare graduates who will contribute intellectually, morally and actively to the society they will inherit.
