About

Where love leads, learning thrives, and innovation grows

Vision

In the spirit of Ubuntu, in our school every student is seen, known, and loved. They are safe to bring their whole selves, and they leave with the confidence, competence, and creativity to shape their communities and the world. We are building a school that is a sanctuary, a launchpad, and a promise kept to the next generation.

Mission

The mission of Ubuntu Academies is to provide a safe, rigorous, affirming space where students master literacy, math, and STEM to thrive and lead.

Our Story

Ubuntu Academies began from my years of transforming schools and leading equity work across Tucson. As a turnaround principal, I learned that creating a true family inside the school is the number one ingredient for success—when students feel safe and seen, they thrive. That same approach led schools I led to national recognition and guided my work as Director of African American Student Services in Tucson Unified School District. Now, Ubuntu carries that legacy forward—building schools where every child belongs and can excel.

Why Ubuntu Academies?

Ubuntu Academies is built on a proven approach that has transformed schools to national recognition. We create a true family where students feel safe and seen, which allows them to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally while preparing them to lead with confidence.
