Welcome to BASIS Scottsdale Primary East!

BASIS Scottsdale Primary East maintains a strong school community and culture that is spirited, welcoming, and supportive. Every day, students are engaged in hands-on, collaborative lessons that continually connect the different subjects to each other. At BASIS Scottsdale Primary East, we also focus on social and emotional learning, in addition to academics. The social and emotional learning program is continued in and outside of the classroom.

At BASIS Scottsdale Primary East we honor and support the Teacher/Student relationship so that children can learn to take responsibility for their education early on. Through careful nurturing and step-by-step progressions each year we strive to help students become organized and efficient with their studies so that they can enjoy the learning process and become successful critical thinkers.

We are looking forward to a great year!
