Welcome to Civano K-8, a place where natural curiosity and imagination lead to exploration and discovery in learners of all ages.
“Where Children Want to Learn!”
“Civano is a great place to teach. Students get the opportunity to do real world projects. They learn to create, collaborate, and develop tenacity. As a teacher it is a pleasure to work at a school where these values inform our curriculum.” ~Civano Teacher~
“My kids are now in 8th grade and 10th grade and attended Civano starting in kindergarten. Civano gave and taught them to love learning; gave them skills to be successful in whatever they choose to do; and confidence. As a parent I got to volunteer to teach electives – puppetry and quilting – and I had a blast! It is truly a community that we have been blessed to be a part of.” ~2016 Civano Parent~
“I enjoy school because I get things done and I feel good when I do.” ~Current Student~
With the help and stewardship of our community we are able to locate and help fund these programs for our students.
Julie Galloway teaches students mix media and helps enhance their art appreciation.
Middle school student work with Vince Sebastian, in unique art pieces. Vince is very active in displaying students completed work at Miller Golf Links Library, in student classrooms, and office.
Our drama teacher, Mika Deslongchamps, meets with all our students once a week. Students practice voice projection and practice for a play performance in February. Mika helps students to put on short 10minute plays for their annual performance; where students can be actors, production managers, stage directors and design.
Libby Bishop, a parent in our community, volunteers her time, and expertise on our campus to teach students about mindful breathing, yoga practices, and other brain exercises. These exercises help improve attention span, memory, and learning, they can also reduce stress and the effects of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and even delay cognitive decline in old age.
