As an independent Kindergarten through Eighth Grade school within the Pasadena community we have a public purpose to model all that is best about education. We offer small classes taught by dedicated teachers whose average length of service to Chandler is ten years. We are a traditional school in which our students wear uniforms and work hard to meet challenging expectations, yet we are an enlightened twenty-first century school. Access to the latest information technology is available in each classroom. Arts and athletics round out a program which is academic in its orientation, but not exclusively academic. We understand children and the needs of childhood. We respect and value the challenges as well as the opportunities that accompany adolescence. Although we are highly selective in our admissions practices, we recognize that there is not one way to teach and one way to learn. Above all, we take good care of the young people who attend our school as we nurture their affinities and interests and equip them with the learning skills to carry them through life.
Our school is dynamic and evolving, yet we are faithful to the core principles embodied in our philosophy and mission statements which have guided us for more than fifty years. You will find Chandler a well-organized school, an inclusive, welcoming school and a place in which we value character as much as we value intellect.
