Welcome to Candeo Schools!
Candeo Peoria a non-profit, Arizona state-approved public charter school serving children in grades Kindergarten through Sixth. We utilize the nationally-recognized Core Knowledge sequence for content and provide evidence-based methods and programs for your child's success. With an overall school student-to-teacher ratio of 20:1 (not inlcuding instructional aides), we offer an exceptional, personal, and caring educational experience for your child.

We accept applications year round. Placement is granted if classroom space is available; if space is not available, students are placed on a wait list. We currently have wait lists for all grades for the 2009-2010 school year. 

Early open enrollment for the 2010-2011 school year begins November 1 and concludes December18, 2009.

Philosophy
All children have gifts and talents; it is our responsibility to find and nurture them.

Candeo (can-DAY-o) is a Latin term meaning "to grow brilliant," and that is exactly what we intend to do!  In fact, it is our mission -- to grow brilliance among students and staff.
