Arizona State Schools for the Deaf and the Blind (6393)

The Arizona State Schools for the Deaf and the Blind is an active, state-operated educational agency headquartered at 1200 W. Speedway Blvd. in the large city setting of Tucson, Arizona. Serving as a vital public resource rather than a charter organization, the district oversees a network of 19 operational schools situated within the broader Tucson metropolitan region and state borders. The institution delivers a full continuum of academic and developmental services tailored for students with specialized sensory needs, spanning early childhood education in pre-kindergarten all the way through 12th grade, as well as ungraded individualized instruction.

In the 2024–2025 academic context, the district serves a total enrollment of 351 students, reflecting a vibrant community composed of 187 male and 164 female learners. The student population showcases broad demographic diversity, including 179 Hispanic, 99 White, 29 American Indian, 26 Black, 9 multiracial, and 8 Asian students, anchored by a substantial early-learning foundation of 72 pre-kindergarten participants. While federal reporting for this dataset cycle records zero full-time equivalent (FTE) teaching and support staff positions due to state agency reporting variances, the district continues to fulfill its mission of providing specialized, high-quality instruction and accessible pathways for deaf, hard-of-hearing, blind, and visually impaired youth across the region.
