The original structure of Arleth School was built in 1957; additions to the building occurred in 1959 and 2000. The building has a large cafeteria and multipurpose room and a separate gymnasium/auditorium. There is also a large library with a separate computer lab. Recently, there have been recent upgrades to the heating units in some parts of the building. New energy efficient windows have also been installed in a majority of the building.

As a grade K-3 school of over 500 students, we are dedicated to providing our children with developmentally appropriate early childhood practices in language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, art, music, physical education, health, Spanish, library-media skills and computer literacy. There is an emphasis on the use of technology. Every classroom is equipped with a SMART Board, Document Camera and computer.
