About Us

Welcome to Benjamin Franklin Charter School - Gilbert Campus! Since 1997, we have been providing students in Gilbert some of the best education in the state. Our mission is to offer a well-rounded education with proven superior academics, exceptional programs, time-honored values, and a high level of parental participation. Come visit us and see all that Gilbert has to offer your family. Go Jaguars!

Traditional Education

We believe that learning, hard work, and fun are not mutually exclusive and that learning should be a joyful and exciting endeavor, especially for children. Traditional Education is the foundation of our curriculum. During the K-6 years, also known as the Grammar Stage in Classical education, our students focus on learning the fundamental rules, terms, and facts about subjects.
