About

A quest for curious kids

Welcome to Capstone Quest Academy, where little steps make big dreams come true. Since 2013 our Tucson and Yuma sites have been a home away from home — a DES-certified Pre-K that prepares children aged three to five for kindergarten without rushing childhood.

The instructional day runs five days a week. Early arrival (7:00–8:00 AM) and late dismissal (3:30–6:00 PM) are offered as fee-for-service care so working families can use the full 7 AM–6 PM window.

What we believe

Children learn by doing, talking, and belonging. Our teachers design studios — art, blocks, stories, outdoor science — where literacy and math show up as tools, not drills. Families are partners, not visitors.

Owl-livia (our mortarboarded mascot) stands for wisdom earned gently: try, notice, try again.

People who know your child

Zoe Cordova

Teacher · Tucson

Hi! My name is Miss Zoe Cordova, and I’m so excited to be your teacher this year! I love creating a classroom where students feel welcomed, supported, and excited to learn.

A few of my favorite things are sunset colors, Korean BBQ, mockingbirds, Too Many Carrots, and Pan’s Labyrinth. I love traveling, going to the movies, cooking, watching sunsets, and spending time with my friends and family. My favorite season is fall and winter, and I’m always happy with anything spicy!

I’m looking forward to a year filled with learning, laughter, kindness, and lots of wonderful memories together!

Juridia Hernandez

Teacher’s Assistant · Tucson

Hi! My name is Juridia Hernandez, but you can call me Miss J! I’m so excited to be your Teacher’s Assistant and to help make our classroom a fun, welcoming, and encouraging place for every student.

A few of my favorite things are orange and pink, Chinese food, sea otters, volleyball, K-pop and R&B, and wintertime. I also love doing nails, cooking and baking for others, dancing, doing my makeup, decorating for Christmas, and spending time with family and friends. Two places I especially love are Korea and Japan.

I’m looking forward to helping our students learn, laugh, grow, and have an amazing year together! 💕🌈
