Chandler Traditional Academy - Liberty Campus is a high-performing public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in Chandler, Arizona, part of the Chandler Unified District #80. With 718 students, the school consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, currently holding a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Chandler Traditional Academy - Liberty Campus stands out for its exceptional academic performance, consistently outpacing the Chandler Unified District and the state of Arizona in English Language Arts and Mathematics assessments. The school's performance is particularly strong for certain student subgroups, such as Asian and Hispanic students, who rank among the top in the state. However, the school's achievement gaps suggest the need to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students.

When compared to nearby schools, Chandler Traditional Academy - Liberty Campus emerges as a standout institution.

CTA- Liberty is an excellent school. The teachers and staff are amazing. I'm so grateful to have my children in this fantastic school. My children love going to CTA Liberty too! Close Quote

We are VERY happy (and proud) to send our daughter to this school! In short - any organization which is well run has something to do with the leadership/management. The Principal Dr. Bader, is a very 'hands-on' educator. She seems genuinely care for the kids and rally the strong support of a team, including staff and strong PTO. Everyday, Dr Bader herself comes out to be a Crossing-Guard, greets the parents and students; my daughter said Dr. Bader is with them watching over their safety even at playground during recess. At the Volunteers appreciation meeting, I was surprised to see more then 80-100 volunteers/parents in the hall, and that's just ONE session in the morning. (They held another session in the evening too.) Most of them have a few kids in the same school, even went on to tell their friends/neighbors who live out of boundary to enroll for this school as they are grateful & see the values of it. Can't agree more that "It takes the whole village to raise a child" - from the principal to the teachers, staff and also parents,whose active participation is vital to to raise the next generation.
