The Coolidge Unified School District runs the San Tan Heights Elementary School in the San Tan Heights subdivision off Hunt Highway.

Copper Basin K-6 School and Skyline K-8 School (Skyline Ranch School) are also part of the Florence Unified School District.

My daughters attend New Vistas Academy , a wonderful private school in Chandler. Their curriculum is focused on reading, writing, math, social studies and science. Children as young as 2 and a half learn how to read. My oldest was reading 3 100+ page books in pre-Kindergarten. I highly recommend the school.
