At ALA Ironwood Pre-K-6, we pride ourselves on fostering a kind and supportive environment where every student can thrive academically, socially, and personally. Guided by our R.A.I.S.E. values—Respect, Accountability, Integrity, Service, and Excellence—we empower our scholars to become confident leaders. Our commitment to "sprinkling kindness" ensures that our students not only excel academically but also develop strong moral character.

ALA Ironwood Pre-K-6 offers a robust preschool and elementary program designed to lay a strong foundation for lifelong learning. Our Little Leaders program serves children aged 3-5, providing their first pre-K experience in a nurturing environment. Here, students learn their numbers and letters, and begin to apply them to basic math, reading, and writing concepts. The curriculum also focuses on enhancing social, sensory, and motor skills, ensuring a well-rounded development. Clear expectations, including our school uniform guidelines, reinforce structure and unity among students, helping them focus on learning and personal growth.

In our pre-K program, ALA Ironwood  prepares students for kindergarten by modeling American Leadership Academy's K-12 Core Knowledge Sequence and aligning lessons with Arizona Early Learning Standards. This prepares students for success in language, literacy, social development, communication, and physical development from the very beginning.

As one of the largest K-6 campuses in the district, ALA Ironwood K-6 is recognized as one of the top-performing schools in the area regarding our academics. We proudly earned the title of #1 Scholastic Summer Reading Champions in the state of Arizona. We firmly believe that a strong foundation in literacy is key to student success, which is why we encourage our students to engage in nightly reading through our 20-20 Reading Program and exciting bike raffles. Additionally, we emphasize the practice of math facts to help students achieve automaticity, laying the groundwork for advanced mathematical thinking and problem-solving skills.

Creating a safe and nurturing environment is at the heart of ALA Ironwood. We have built a community where students feel secure, valued, and respected, allowing them to grow in all aspects. Our dedicated educators and staff are passionate about fostering a love for learning and ensuring that every student feels supported and encouraged to reach their full potential.

Our dedication to excellence is reflected in the testimonials from our parents and the broader community, who share vibrant stories of growth, achievement, and the strong bonds formed within our school. ALA Ironwood Pre-K-6 is proud to be an 'A rated' school, recognized for our high performance and commitment to student success.

At American Leadership Academy Ironwood Pre-K-6, we believe that strong partnerships with families are essential to providing the best educational experience for our students. We work closely with parents and guardians to support each child’s academic and personal growth, acting as your child's number two cheerleader right beside your family. This collaborative approach ensures that our students receive a well-rounded education in a loving and encouraging environment.
