Opened in 1927, we are one of the oldest elementary schools in Tucson.  Our school is named after a pioneering merchant who was instrumental in promoting public education in Tucson.  Currently we have 313 students enrolled in kindergarten through grade five.

 We are a small neighborhood school that is nestled in the heart of the historic Sam Hughes Neighborhood.  The University of Arizona is two blocks west of us and we enjoy our close proximity in a variety of ways.  Both the opportunities we have to explore our past through our historic connections, and the ability to see into the future with our ties to the University of Arizona, help to make us a truly unique school.

But there’s more:

   AZ Learns Excelling School

   Nominated for Blue Ribbon Award 

   Collaborations with the U of A 

   Artists in Residence Programs

   Expanded facilities including state of the art library and multipurpose room

   A variety of after school enrichment classes 

   Active School Council that participates in shared decision making with school        administration

   Experienced teaching staff
