Why is Zaharis Elementary so COOL?

Out here in the Arizona heat, and in an educational climate of high-stakes testing, learning at Zaharis is still fun. Kids, teachers, and community members love coming to school. Our teachers are united in their commitment to providing learning experiences that matter. When things heat up, we stick to our beliefs and do what is best for children. And that’s what makes us COOL.
