Our School

Queen Creek is located about 50 miles southeast of Phoenix, Arizona. Our town is one of the fastest growing towns in the state of Arizona; yet drawing on its rich, rural roots, it maintains its strength as a well-planned, family-oriented community. In keeping with that tradition, our Pre-K – 4th graders at Queen Creek Elementary School have a strong sense of family values and excellence as well as a sense of vision for a successful future. They know that it takes hard work to succeed – and our Eagles are not afraid of hard work! They strive for excellence in all they do, and we are proud of them.
