Re-Enrollment is Live!
San Tan Charter School has achieved the prestigious status of an A-rated school and district! An A rating reflects excellence: distinguished performance on statewide assessments, significant student growth, high four-year graduation rates, and a strong trajectory toward proficiency. Overall, our performance significantly exceeds the state average. As we dive into this rating, some remarkable statistics emerge. Out of 602 schools across Arizona, The K-12 Recker Campus ranked 50th—an incredible achievement!
As you know, we offer three educational paths: Mainstream, Gifted, and Montessori. We are excited to announce that our Montessori program will be going through high school at the Recker Campus. If you are considering a change in your students path for next year, please reach out to Ms. Cox at katie.cox@santancs.com to collaborate on the best decision for your student.
Click below to re-enroll your students. For Kindergarten, please follow the specific instructions that were shared with you via email. If you have any questions regarding the parent portal, please feel free to reach out to Sydney Burdeno.
One of San Tan Charter School’s most memorable traditions is only one week away! This event dates back to Dr. and Mrs. Sippel’s very first years as a school. Over the years it has transformed into a beautiful community event. All the while keeping with the heart of bringing family together.
**Please note: We will operate on an early release schedule this day beginning at 11 am. Drivelane does not occur on this day. Parents must park, pick up their child, then we invite you to participate in the festive activities!
With the year in full-swing, I wanted to provide some reminders for our school day.
If you are sending food in for your child after the school day has begun, please send in a sealed drink. It is difficult to deliver drinks in the lunch bags that have straws and are not sealed.
If your child is going to be absent, please ensure they are being signed in at the Front Office.
Recker Winter Music Concert
Our Festival of Fine Arts is around the corner! Please see our Save the Date below to add it to your calendar.
Each group will be representing a different type of art genre and will sing songs that match each style of art. “Fine arts” being interpreted as both music and art.
School Spotlight - Cup Stacking
We are officially over 500,000 verified stackers and our Recker Roadrunners are included in that number. The record is over 746,000 and they had over 775,000 registered. As long as everyone did their part, our students will be Guinness Book of World Record holders.
