Rancho Solano Preparatory School

• Private School
• Scottsdale, AZ
• PK, K-12
• 26

Parent: We have been a Rancho family for over 10 years. We started when my son was 3 y.o. The curriculum has always been at least a year ahead, if not more, compared with local public schools. Class size is often 10 children/ class room. The individual attention each student receives is incredible. Every teacher and staff member, knows who my children are and where they should be. Furthermore, the teachers knowledge of our children's strengths and weaknesses is unparalleled. The nurturing environment is why my children feel so safe and content at this school. We feel very lucky to be able to be party of this community.

Knox Gifted Academy

• Chandler Unified School District No. 80, AZ
• PK, K-6
• 17

Parent: Knox is a very unique school. The teaching style lends itself to developing the skills required to be successful later in school, and in life. It's not just basic repetition and memorization, rather it's true in-depth learning. The teaching staff is great, the administration really cares about the kids, and the school district is one of the best in the state. We have had kids attend other great schools, but Knox is leaps and bounds above even the other great schools. I can't recommend Knox enough - we are so happy that our kids are lucky enough to attend this school!

Reid Traditional Schools - Valley Academy

• Public School
• Phoenix, AZ
• PK, K-8
• 6

Parent: This is a great school, very organized, disciplined, focused on academics. It prepared my kids so well to go to high school. It is a traditional school. Students have good manners, dress appropriately.

The only thing I am not happy with is starting from two years ago, this school replaced a real teacher with software (Rosetta Stone) to teach Spanish. All the students hated it. I hope they realize how bad it is and go back to the traditional way to teach foreign language. Of course, most other public schools in this area don't offer foreign language at all.

ASU Preparatory Academy - Poly STEM Academy

• Public School
• Mesa, AZ
• PK, K-8
• 5

Senior: Over the four years that I have attended this school it has proven the importance of getting ready for college early. The classes are at a higher level when compared to other high schools in AZ. The classes can be tough but there's a good reason. The methods the teachers use are similar to that of college professors. It's up to the students to do their homework to be ready for the test. Homework does not go for a grade but it is still the most important thing to do in order to make sure your mind is ready for the future. One notable lesson is that every senior is required to apply for scholarships and colleges as part of the curriculum. Because of the smaller size of the school the teachers are able to speak with students and parents on a more personal basis. The students and teachers become friends instead of acquaintances.

Charlotte Patterson Elementary School

• Chandler Unified School District No. 80, AZ
• PK, K-6
• 2

Parent: Offers traditional program for students wanting to be challenged and learn Math at a grade higher. Students are instructed using Saxon and Spalding materials.

My youngest started here mid January as a 1st grader and had to quickly learn phonograms and 2nd grade math. His teacher Mrs Ackerman was wonderful and he caught up with his peers and did well!

I didn't know how valuable learning phonograms is till I realized one day that he aced his 30 words spelling test without having to learn! He was a budding chapter book reader but now his reading level is at 2.8-3.9 and his love for reading has increased.

The 1st quarter of 2nd grade is about to end but he could already finish 50 math facts without any errors, in 1 minute. The goal for CTA students is to get to 100 in 4 minutes by end of school year.

Parent involvement is high, they are quick to sign up as volunteers. Lots of after school clubs are offered at the school itself which makes it convenient.
