Programs That Meet Students Where They Are

San Tan Charter is a tuition-free public charter school serving Preschool through 12th Grade across three campuses in Gilbert and Queen Creek.

Families choose from Montessori, Gifted, and Traditional learning models—each designed to meet students where they are and help them grow with confidence.

Our teachers use small class sizes, ongoing assessments, and close collaboration with families to ensure every child is supported academically, socially, and emotionally.

High Engagement, Minimal Homework

At San Tan Charter, student learning happens during the school day. We emphasize time-on-task and active engagement in every classroom—so homework is kept minimal, giving students time to rest, recharge, and enjoy life outside of school.

This model was built in direct partnership with parents and continues to be a top reason families choose our school.

Supporting Every Learner’s Journey

At San Tan Charter, education is about more than academics—it’s about guiding each student’s growth from preschool through high school. Across our three campuses in Gilbert and Queen Creek, families can choose from Montessori, Gifted, and Traditional programs, giving every child a pathway that supports their strengths and challenges.

To help students stay on track for college, careers, and life, we provide:

MAP® Testing

Ongoing assessments that give teachers real-time insights into student growth and achievement.

Quarterly Conferences

Dedicated time for parents and teachers to collaborate, review progress, and set meaningful goals.

A Balanced, Enriching Curriculum

Students experience a full spectrum of learning, including:

• Core subjects aligned to Arizona College & Career Readiness Standards

• Daily Physical Education to support health and movement

• Weekly Program Specials including Music, Art, and Daily P.E.

Teaching With Heart and Purpose

Our educators don’t just deliver lessons—they build relationships. Every teacher is committed to understanding each student’s learning style, building trust, and creating a classroom that encourages curiosity and resilience.

Rooted in Values: Love and Logic®

We foster responsibility and self-management through Love and Logic®—a proven classroom approach built on respect, natural consequences, and empathy. Our students learn to own their choices and grow in both independence and emotional strength.

Supporting the Whole Child

From special education services to social-emotional development, we believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, and seen.

We’re proud to be a learning community where:

• Character and leadership are woven into daily life (via our iLEAD framework)

• Students are supported academically and emotionally

• Families are partners in every stage of the learning journey
