Choosing the right area of the Valley of the Sun for your family can be quite a challenge.  For many families that choose to relocate to the Phoenix-area, quality schools are at the top of the list.  Many families find affordable Gilbert, AZ and the Gilbert Public School District an ideal place to start their house hunt.

Gilbert School District is typically in the top 3 districts in the state, based on test scores and graduation rates.  According to state standards, the district has 31 Excelling schools, out of 36.   

There are over 38,000 students enrolled in 26 elementary schools, 6 junior highs, and 4 high schools, along with 3 academies and 36 preschool classrooms.

I have recently toured at many of these schools in the hunt for a good school for my own son.  You can read those articles here.

Also keep in mind that the current Superintendent plans to retire at the end of this year.  The search is on for a new one.  Check out this post for more info.
