Located on Tucson’s Northwest Side and surrounded by breathtaking mountain and city views, La Cima Middle School is  Amphi School District’s hidden gem. Our beautiful campus proudly serves a culturally and economically diverse population.

In Spanish, “LA CIMA” means “The top ridge or crest of a mountain”. Middle school is a time of accepting new challenges and climbing to new heights as students learn to view life from a more mature perspective. Our teachers and staff will always put students first and offer gentle and consistent guidance to students on their journey to the La Cima mountain top.

 CARDINAL PRIDE

“Cardinal Pride” is symbolic of school spirit. School spirit is a sense of pride shown by those who feel a strong connection to their place of learning and the people in it. When visitors walk on campus, it is evident that La Cima is a place where students, staff, and families take pride in our campus, our learning, and our athletics. LCMS provides a safe and supportive atmosphere where students are prepared to excel and find their passion for academics, extracurricular activities, and sports.
