Mission:

The Nautilus school community of staff, students and families work as a team. We share the responsibility of modeling and teaching the essential academic and life skills necessary to encourage our students to become responsible, contributing members of society. We strive to cultivate each student's strengths and to encourage his or her own positive character traits.

Our strategy of proven academic programs, quality staff, and parental support provides an excellent foundation on which to build a sound educational future. Combined within this framework, the focus on individual students is the key to helping all our students meet the Arizona State Standards.

Nautilus Elementary is continually improving instructional delivery methods and systems to meet our students' needs in a safe, orderly, and caring environment
