Salt River Elementary School

Salt River Elementary School operates as an active, standalone public school district located at 11562 East Highland Ave in Scottsdale, Arizona. Nestled within a rural fringe setting of the broader Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler metropolitan area, this single-facility district provides focused primary education for children from Kindergarten through 6th grade. The district serves a tight-knit student body of 265 elementary students—comprising 143 female and 122 male learners—entirely representing American Indian heritage, fostering a culturally connected and supportive learning environment tailored to its community.

The district supports its student body with an exceptionally strong staffing infrastructure, maintaining a total workforce of 144 full-time equivalent staff members. This includes 66 full-time equivalent teachers, 16 instructional aides, and 62 support staff personnel, allowing for remarkably small class sizes and a high degree of individualized academic attention. As a regular, non-charter public school district, Salt River Elementary School provides families, educators, and researchers with a dedicated model for early childhood and elementary instruction.
