Dear Prospective Families and Esteemed Members of the West Valley, 

Welcome to Archway Trivium, a vital part of the esteemed Great Hearts Academies, located in the vibrant city of Goodyear, Arizona. As a tuition-free, public charter school, we are dedicated to offering a transformative elementary education grounded in the classical liberal arts tradition. At Archway Trivium, our mission goes beyond fostering academic proficiency; we aspire to cultivate great-hearted leaders who are prepared for lifelong success in both their higher educational pursuits and professional careers. 

Our school is a haven of classical education, where the rich traditions of the past meet the dynamic needs of the present. This approach is not confined to imparting knowledge; it’s about kindling a deep-rooted passion for the pursuit of Truth, Goodness, and Beauty. These principles form the cornerstone of our curriculum and are echoed in every classroom and interaction within our school walls. 

In Goodyear, Arizona, Archway Trivium stands as a testament to the enduring power of a classical education. Our faculty, steeped in their respective disciplines, are not just teachers but mentors who guide our students through a curriculum rich in literature, mathematics, science, history, and the arts. This education is enhanced with studies in foreign languages and physical education, ensuring a holistic growth for each kindergarten through 5th grade child. 

As a preparatory institution, our goal is to lay a robust academic and moral foundation for our young scholars. The skills and virtues inculcated here – critical thinking, intellectual curiosity, ethical integrity, and resilience – are pivotal in preparing them for the intellectual rigors and moral challenges of middle school, high school, and the world beyond. We believe these foundational years are critical in shaping individuals who are not only knowledgeable but also virtuous and compassionate. 

Our dedication to a tuition-free classical education ensures that this rich learning experience is accessible to all. We believe in democratizing quality education, making it a reality for families across diverse economic backgrounds. This commitment fosters a diverse and inclusive community where each child is valued and empowered. 

Education at Archway Trivium is a collaborative journey involving students, educators, and families. We encourage active parent involvement, believing that strong partnerships between home and school are essential in nurturing confident, well-rounded learners. Our community events, parent-teacher conferences, and volunteer opportunities are just a few ways families can engage with and contribute to our vibrant school life. 

As you consider a place for your child in our community, we invite you to experience the unique atmosphere at Archway Trivium. Visit our classrooms and witness the magic that happens when young minds are engaged, hearts are inspired, and characters are shaped. Observe our students as they engage in lively discussions, collaborate on projects, and develop into thoughtful and articulate individuals. 

Archway Trivium is more than an educational institution; it is a nurturing ground where academic excellence is intertwined with character development. Here, students don’t just learn; they thrive, develop a lifelong love of learning, and prepare to make meaningful contributions to the world. 

We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to welcome you to Archway Trivium, to share with you the joy and excitement of our school, and to embark on this enriching educational journey together. 

With our warmest regards, 

Clay Scott,
Headmaster
