Hudlow Home
Our very own Hudlow Hawks are the proud winner of the Dr. Trujillo District Attendance Challenge. We received this award on November 12, 2019 at the Governing Board meeting. Our student attendance increased over three percent, which is more than three times as much as other schools. Thank you for all your support and making sure that your children are here every day and on time. We could not have won this award without your support!
We are also proud to announce that Hudlow has officially received the letter grade of B for this year. Teachers, staff, students and parents put in a lot of hard work last year to demonstrate their academic growth. We hope to continue this progress for this school year. As you know, its takes a village to achieve this accomplishment. Every day counts, please continue to send your son/daughter to school every day in order to support our teachers and your children.

Students are encouraged to work collaboratively every day in class. When teachers ask questions, children know to turn to each other to find the answers. Teachers also work together, sharing student test scores, strengths and areas needing improvement. Hudlow teaches at the individual level to ensure that all students get what they need.
We are always asking ourselves, “What is the best I can be?” and “Is this quality work?”
Welcome to Hudlow Elementary School
"Hudlow….on a learning expedition. We engage, connect, create, achieve, reflect and
communicate our successes to our families and community. We are a quality school."
Hudlow families...We are seeking clothing donations for our "Community Closet" (in the Hudlow nurse's office).
We could really use girls' clothing in small and medium sizes. If you are cleaning out your closets, we would gladly take whatever they don't need.
What is Site Council? - Simply put, it's a group of people (teachers, parents, community members, school staff, and the principal) who get together quarterly to discuss goals for the school, exchange ideas, and share in the decision-making process that DIRECTLY IMPACT YOUR CHILD.
What's the difference between Site Council and PTA? - Site council focuses on the policies impacting our school. PTA is a support group that assists teachers, works on special events, sometimes raises funds and otherwise helps out as needed throughout the school year.
Why should I participate? - If you have a child at Hudlow, don't you want to have some input in the direction of the school? Being on site council also gives you a front seat to upcoming changes in district policy, school finances, quality of education, and so much more.
How much of a commitment is it .... really? - Our site council meets quarterly (and we've already had the first meeting!). We meet via Zoom (unless there is a need or consensus by participants to meet face-to-face). The meetings only last about an hour.
Crazy times call for innovative solutions! We’re forming a new support group in which parents/guardians of Hudlow Elementary students can join in to a live weekly online Zoom get-together, (or connect anytime via phone text or email) if interested in receiving information and help at home.
We’ll be looking at behavioral interventions and methods to see what is works at home. We’ll explore some written works by experts in the field of effective child discipline, and one of the core goals of this group is to have a space where parents/guardians can talk to each other, and to feel safe and supported while discussing on-going issues, goals, successes and expectations.
The group will be open for everyone starting December 9, 2020.
For more information, contact our school counselor, Carlos Gomez via email (Carlos.Gomez@tusd1.org) or text (480-788-1424).
Join live Zoom Meeting Wednesday mornings from 11am-Noon
