Gilbert Arts Academy is a K-8 public charter school. Like a traditional public school, there is no tuition fee; we receive our funding from the state of Arizona. Our students take the same state tests as students in public schools, but the school is held accountable to the state, to the Leona Group, Inc., and its governing board. The success of our students is reflected in the school's state and federal educational reports. 

Our Kindergarten Readiness Program is a private program that is specifically tailored to the needs of 4-year-old children who will be turning five (5) before August 31 of the next school year. The program was developed from extensive research and collaboration between administration and kindergarten teachers to identify the skills children need to ensure kindergarten success.  Use of complementary curriculum ensures the transition to kindergarten is accomplished with ease.  ​
