I had my son at this school for about two months and had to deal with so many different issues. From my child being bullied on a daily and having chunks of hair cut out of his head. Every time I came to the school to address the issue his kindergarten teacher and the principal acted like they didn't care. I took my son out of this school and placed him in curiel elementry in Eloy where I've had zero problems.Curiel also has a more advance teaching level for the kindergarten classes. I'm very glad I made the switch. I would not recommend picacho elementry school to anyone that cares about there Childs well being or the level that there being taught at.

It's a small rural school with one teacher per grade. We have some of the best kids anywhere! We also have a staff that really cares about the children and the families of the children. Likewise, we have parents and children who really care about the staff! Two years ago when I was seriously injured in an auto accident on the way to school, parents visited me in the hospital and offered to help in any way they could. That meant a lot to me. Because it's a small school there is a feeling of belonging to a family there! And that makes it a win-win environment for student, staff, and parents!
