About the school

The school is named for Frances Brandon Pickett, a teacher and artist who founded the San Tan Historical Society. She was born in the historic Rittenhouse Schoolhouse and later taught there, which ties the school's name to Queen Creek's early farm-town history.

On its programs page, the school lists the district's Enhanced Learning Program (ELP) for gifted students, English Language Learner support, reading intervention, after-school tutoring and a schoolwide PBIS approach to behavior. Students also have library, music, P.E. and technology classes.

Clubs and activities named by the school include cheer, a running club, intramural sports, choir and handbells, a coding club, student council and Lead Out Loud. Community Education runs after-school enrichment classes, and Discovery Kids offers licensed before- and after-school care on campus. The school also has an active PTO.

Drop-off begins at 7:45 a.m., and the school notes there is no supervision before then. For early release dates and holidays, see the Queen Creek Unified district calendar.

Attendance boundaries and enrollment

Queen Creek Unified publishes a school boundary locator. Always confirm the assigned school for the exact address with the district, because boundaries can change and homes near a school are not guaranteed to be assigned to it. Listing data can also be out of date, so don't rely on the school field in an MLS listing alone.

New families enroll online through the district's enrollment page. The district asks for a birth certificate, immunization records, proof of residency, a parent photo ID and prior school records when transferring. For kindergarten, a child must turn 5 by August 31, and children who turn 5 between September 1 and December 31 can apply for early-entrance testing. Families who live outside the boundary can apply through open enrollment, and the school says it accepts open enrollment applications, subject to approval.

Neighborhoods nearby

Queen Creek has a wide range of neighborhoods within a short drive of the school, from master-planned communities to acreage. Compare Hastings Farms, Sossaman Estates, Encanterra, homes on 1+ acre and horse properties, and read my Moving to Queen Creek guide. Then check each address with the boundary locator.
