Traditional Kindergarten Prep is a program for four year olds, the year before Kindergarten, designed to give a jump start on their Traditional educational pathway. This 20-student program is taught by a certified teacher who has been trained in traditional curriculum and methodologies, with a classroom assistant to support the students. A partial-day program offering morning and afternoon is available at Neely Traditional Academy, a hybrid program is available at Canyon Rim Elementary, and a full-day program is available at Spectrum Elementary.  

Traditional Kindergarten Prep students will participate in a primary language arts program based on the Spalding Method using 'The Writing Road to Reading' (2012). It is a phonics-based program with an emphasis on oral phonogram practice. The mathematics program, Math in Focus, is a comprehensive program that develops strong algebraic concepts and problem-solving skills.  Science, music, art, and physical education are introduced daily through hands-on discovery and other intentionally developed activities. Kindergarten Prep is aligned with the Arizona Department of Education Early Learning Standards, and is supplemented with: Handwriting Without Tears, We Thinkers! Social-Emotional Curriculum, STEM, and Unplugged Coding activities.
