If you are ready to enroll for 2026-27, now is the moment to act. EDUPRIZE is a tuition-free Arizona public charter school with two K-8 campuses in Gilbert and Queen Creek, plus a K-12 online program that serves families statewide. Seats fill quickly, and the earlier your family applies, the more options you will have.
We have spent thirty years, since 1995, building a school that feels like family. That reputation shows up every year at enrollment time, when parents move fast to reserve a seat for their child. Many of our classrooms return the same students year after year, and word travels fast among neighbors and friends who have watched their own children thrive here.
This guide walks you through exactly what to expect and how to enroll for 2026-27 with confidence. Whether you are new to charter schools or simply looking for a better fit, we will make the path clear and simple.
Why Families Enroll for 2026-27 Early
The best classrooms and grade levels tend to reach capacity first. Kindergarten and the early elementary grades are especially popular, and once a grade is full, new families join a waitlist. Applying early gives your child the strongest chance at your first-choice campus and program.
EDUPRIZE holds six consecutive A+ Excelling ratings from the Arizona Department of Education, the longest A+ Excelling streak of any charter school in the state. That track record draws families from across the East Valley, so demand is high every spring.
Families who enroll for 2026-27 early also give themselves time to settle in before the first day. That means meeting teachers, learning the schedule, and helping your child feel excited rather than anxious. A calm, early start sets the tone for a great year.
What EDUPRIZE Offers Across Every Campus
EDUPRIZE gives Arizona families more than one path to an award-winning education. Here is what each option includes:
- EDUPRIZE Gilbert: K-8 traditional, FLEX (a five-hour school day), and Pre-K with full-day and part-day options.
- EDUPRIZE Queen Creek: K-8 traditional plus part-day Pre-K.
- EDUPRIZE Online: a fully virtual K-12 program available anywhere in Arizona.
Every program shares the same standards, the same caring teachers, and the same commitment to knowing each student by name.
