The Community

The Glendale Elementary School District encompasses 16 square miles in the heart of the city of Glendale, a large suburban community located immediately northwest of Phoenix. Glendale was a small agricultural community which has now grown to a population of over 180,000 people. This rapid growth is largely due to the favorable climate, employment opportunities, numerous amenities, a strong sense of community and pleasant quality of life.

Although primarily a residential area, there are a few large corporations within the district's boundaries, including several large shopping centers and major utility companies. The economy in Maricopa County is based on high technology manufacturing, and commercial activities (including construction and trade), tourism, government and agriculture.
