I have found the students and staff at this school to be one of the best I have encountered. The staff is also helpful and respectful. My son was failing in a phoenix school but the smaller class sizes and the caring attitude of the teacher made him excel. He ended the year with A's and B's.

I have a daughter that is in 3rd grade, so this is her 4th year at Sechrist. Bottom line: This is a great school. All of her teachers have been fantastic. The teachers all have different teaching styles, but are very cohesive as a group. The principal, Bob Booth, is a bit distant or seems stand-offish,
