A Day at the Learning Center is impactful! More often than not we hear parents tell us that their student WANTS to come to school each day. All students are greeted by friendly staff telling them that they are special and we are happy they are here. Though class sizes can reach up to 25, the school invests in quality aides and campus staff who, along with the teachers, invest in the lives of each student. Students learn in many ways from one classroom to the next, they can be found reading and discussing in groups on the carpet, working on science or art projects as a team or maneuvering through a choreography and music while rehearsing for a production. Lunch and time outside are purposeful, maintaining a school culture of respect and safety.

Arts Integration is a way of life at Otay Ranch Academy for the Arts. It is not an activity that is reserved for art classes or something that a teacher may do once a week or once a month. It is a dedication to a philosophy of teaching that relies on providing students with concrete experiences to connect their understanding. Elective options change every eight weeks.
