Highlights
DeGrazia has a rich history of providing the highest quality education possible for our children. We partner with our families and community to develop the ‘whole child’.
DeGrazia establishes clear expectations for the behavior expected in all classrooms and areas of school. Students are explicitly taught these expectations, and we apply positive reinforcement and consistent consequences.
Music at DeGrazia Elementary School features many musical instruments, including Boomwhackers, bucket drums, chime bars, guitars, Orff xylophones, pianos, ukuleles, and other percussion, such as egg shakers and frame drums.
Collaborative partnerships allow our school to leverage family, school, and community resources to remove barriers to learning and provide essentials to families in need.
Licensed by the AZ Dept. of Health Services, and AZ Dept. of Economic Security approved, our school offers preschool with small/large group activities and enrichment learning activities that promote development in the arts and large motor skills.
DeGrazia Elementary is pleased to announce the achievement of Level 1 certification in Marzano High Reliability Schools™. Level 1 certification means our school has created a “Safe, Supportive, and Collaborative Culture,” which is the foundation for every level that follows.
