About Tempe Elementary School District No. 3
Tempe Elementary uses two principal physical patterns. Most children attend a K–5 elementary school and then one of the district’s grades 6–8 middle schools. Shamley School and Ward Traditional Academy continue through eighth grade, allowing students in those models to cross the elementary-to-middle boundary on the same campus.
Other whole-school choices shape only part of the route. Meyer Montessori, for example, changes the PreK–5 learning environment but still reaches a sixth-grade transition. Tempe Elementary ends after eighth grade; ninth grade belongs to the separate Tempe Union High School District, with new boundaries and enrollment procedures.
