Harelson Elementary School has earned the A+ School of Excellence designation from the Arizona Educational Foundation. The recognition demonstrates Harelson's "unrelenting dedication to excellence in all areas of education, innovation, and community involvement."

We are honored to have earned an “A” rating from the Arizona Department of Education, a reflection of our unwavering commitment to academic excellence, student growth, and a safe, supportive learning environment. This top-tier rating recognizes the hard work of our dedicated staff, engaged families, and motivated students who strive for success every day. At our school, high expectations and strong support go hand in hand, preparing every student for a bright and promising future.

We believe in the promise of every student, and we promise to deliver the educational experiences children need to grow and flourish, from the first day of their kindergarten year to the day they walk across the stage and earn their high school diplomas. One of our core missions is to deliver on the Promise of a Graduate, instilling eight key skills and characteristics in our students as they grow from year to year. Those qualities are Scholarship, Creative Thinking, Problem Solving, Critical Thinking, Collaboration, Communication, Caring and Citizenship.

At Imagine Preschools, we believe that the early years are the foundation for a lifetime of learning. Our programs for children ages 3 to 5 are thoughtfully designed to spark curiosity, build confidence, and nurture a love of discovery. Through hands-on activities, imaginative play, and age-appropriate academics, children develop essential skills in literacy, math, social-emotional growth, and more, all in a safe, caring, and joyful environment. With passionate educators and a focus on whole-child development, Imagine Preschools help young learners take their first steps toward a bright and successful future.

We are proud to offer the AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) program, a transformative college and career readiness initiative. AVID equips students with the skills and support they need to excel in rigorous academic environments and achieve their dreams. Through personalized learning plans, a dedicated AVID elective class, and a school-wide commitment to excellence, our students develop critical thinking, organization, and leadership skills.
