Wow! Where to begin?! Tuacahn is such a completely different experience than any other school you have been to. It is unique in so many ways! Like the scenery! Have you ever been surrounded by a canyon of red rock? Tucked away in the Canyon of Gods you'll find Tuacahn creating art. Tuacahn offers the most interactive creative arts programs you'll find. From visual art to dance you will find more opportunities for creative growth here than anywhere else! With dozens of award-winning students, Tuacahn also has award-winning academics. With top English and Science scores in the country, you won't find a better, more creative school.
I love attending Tuacahn High School for the Arts. I love to do the arts, and this school really lets me explore that. Despite being an art school, I find that my academics have improved significantly compared to the last schools I attended. The administration is great! They are so helpful and they are super personable. I feel very comfortable around them and they honestly just care so much. The students are awesome, we are taught to collaborate and give helpful feedback to one another. Plus, we have a cafe on campus, the food is so good and super affordable. We also enjoy catered food from restaurants around town. Super yummy. Thank you Tuacahn for the presence of amazing culture and love. :)
I have loved coming to this school! I am a current junior and have been going to this school since I was a freshman. This school has the best environment to grow and develop in, and is the best school to go to to be able to create opportunities to learn. I have been lucky enough to participate in the Hero's Journey this year and I have learned so much about creating through the process.
