Mahaffie Elementary School is one of 34 elementary schools in the Olathe School District, a district that is nationally recognized for its educational excellence.
Mahaffie opened in the fall of 1991. We have a student body of approximately 400 students, including PreK -5th grade. We have 22 classroom teachers.
A commitment to educating all children is demonstrated by the high level of student, staff, parent and community involvement. Students are involved through the Mahaffie Leadership Team. Staff members work collaboratively on a variety of school improvement committees. Parents and community members are active participants on the school site council and PTO. Parents serve as “Mahaffie Volunteer Parents/MVP” and “Watch D.O.G.S. (Dads of Great Students)”.
Mahaffie’s mascot is the noble Knight and our school colors are red and black
