San Tan Charter School is a tuition-free K – 12 public charter school located in the Morrison Ranch Community of Gilbert, Arizona. We are a uniform-free charter school providing Traditional, Gifted, and Montessori education.  Our elementary campus partners with our on-campus Private Montessori Preschool to provide before school and after school care options from 7:00 AM – 5:45 PM.

As a school community, we work collaboratively to ensure each student has an academic and social environment designed for their individual success; fostering creativity, critical thinking, and inspiring happiness while honoring each person’s humanity.

ROADRUNNER ROADMAP

At San Tan Charter School every student and family matters. Our Traditional, Gifted, and Montessori programs are designed to support the learning styles of our students. We meet students where they are and bring them to their cutting edge through a Roadrunner Roadmap™ and quarterly conferences. Parents collaborate with teachers to set the homework level that is right for their child and lifestyle.  As students grow, they join the collaboration by setting their own quarterly character and education goals.

WHICH EXPERIENCE IS RIGHT FOR YOUR CHILD?

We see the whole student and tailor their curriculum and learning experiences to keep them at their cutting edge of learning and development.

Does your child appreciate a consistent daily routine, enjoy active learning through hands-on activities, and working with classmates collaboratively… then our Mainstream Program may be the right fit for your child.
Does your child often infer and connect concepts, ponder deep questions, and enjoy interacting with teachers and peers who understand them…then our Gifted Program may be the right fit for your child.
Does your child thrive in simplicity and order, make learning connections while working with their hands, and enjoy learning at their own pace … then our Montessori Program may be the right fit for your child.

The child is endowed with unknown powers, which can guide us to a radiant future. If what we really want is a new world, then education must take as its aim the development of these hidden possibilities.
