Communication is a key component of student success at Arizona Cultural Academy. It is imperative that when questions or concerns arise, that a parent contact their child’s teacher. Teachers can be contacted either through the main office 602-454-1222, or via e-mail. Teachers and staff make every effort to return e-mails and phone calls in a timely manner. We appreciate constructive, collaborative communication.
