“I first learned about Phoenix Modern when it was still in its planning stages. Even then, there was an atmosphere of wonder and positivity which set the tone for an incredible educational journey for my kids. Our family has had the privilege to be a part of Phoenix Modern as it has grown into the wonderful place it is today.”
