Educational Philosophy
The education program at Arizona's Children Association developed from the belief that active participation in a positive learning environment enables a child to begin recovering from the emotional disturbance that disrupted the normal developmental process.

The Covert School program is designed to provide these positive life and successful learning experiences through diagnostic teaching and positive reinforcement. As the bank of successful academic, social, and personal experiences grows, a positive self-image develops. This enables the child to trust adults, peers, and self while becoming better equipped to learn from and process the environment around them.
