Turquoise Trail Elementary School

It's a school that works exceptionally hard and well to bring out the best in children.

The teachers and staff are very supporative of all students and are happy to receive all the parent help they can get. They protect, teach and encourage our students every day.

My son attended this school from K-6 and our experience there was great. He now attends Capshaw middle school and since the school provided great academics he is now ahead of other students who attended different schools for elementry. I would recomend parents to send thier children here if they want their children to get a well rounded education in a multi-sensory level.

I have had 4 children attend this school and have been attending this school since 1999. This school is wonderful. They sincerely care for your child and seeing them as individuals with individual talents and needs. The staff has stayed relatively the same which just demonstrates how cohesive this school is. It is like an extended family. I consider TTE to be the best school in Santa Fe!

I have been a faulty member of Turquiose Trail for 19 years. The reason I have stayed at this school is because the faculty cares about individual children. We look at the child not the numbers on a national test.

We have two kids there and a third has gone on to ATC and is excelling there. All of our kids started out homeschooled, so all had some adjustments. The middle child didn't adapt well to the classroom setting and emphasis on group activities, so she came up with her own alternative. She had qualified for the Enrichment program, so arranged (with administration's and our approval) her own curriculum. She attends regular math, science, and other classes, and does independent study - mostly writing. She's thriving, and the school is to be commended for its flexibility Allan Sindelar
