Summary

Tradewind Elementary is a public elementary school in Amarillo, Texas, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 683 students. The school is part of the Amarillo Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 411 out of 961 school districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Tradewind Elementary has seen fluctuating performance over the years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 1112 out of 4578 Texas elementary schools in 2020-2021 (rated 4 stars) to 3543 out of 4651 in 2024-2025 (rated 1 star). However, the school has shown relatively strong performance for certain student subgroups, such as female students, African American students, English Language Learners, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. For example, in 2021-2022, Tradewind's female students ranked 1175 out of 4561 Texas elementary schools, while its African American students and English Language Learners performed well, ranking in the top half of Texas elementary schools.

Compared to nearby schools within the Amarillo ISD, such as Coronado Elementary, Wolflin Elementary, and Glenwood Elementary, Tradewind Elementary's performance is generally lower, with these nearby schools having higher STAAR proficiency rates, higher statewide rankings, and lower percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Tradewind's high percentage of students from low-income families, coupled with its relatively lower academic performance, may indicate the presence of socioeconomic and other challenges that the school and district need to address.
