Tumbleweed Elementary

Tumbleweed Elementary Tumbleweed affords students a rich curriculum aligned to Arizona College and Career Ready Standards.

Tumbleweed Elementary School, in the Washington Elementary School District, serves more than 400 prekindergarten through sixth grade children in the neighborhood bordered by Cactus Avenue on the north and the Arizona Canal on the south, from 35th Avenue to 43rd Avenue. The school received a “B” rating by the Arizona Department of Education. We are also committed to our Continuous Improvement Plan,

which focuses on instructional practices. Our staff is building our reading intervention plan data discussions to make decisions to best meet the needs of all students every day. Staff works together to implement the Response to Intervention (RTI) model. The structure of RTI provides Tumbleweed students with added academic support. Teacher instructional strategies continue to improve with a focus on increased student engagement and academic growth for all. Teachers also continue to work on math instructional strategies to build a strong understanding of math skills and understanding for all students.
