Anchorage School District

Turnagain Elementary is known for its active and close-knit community. Built in 1956, the school has seen generations of families come and go, while nurturing and inspiring young minds of West Anchorage. The small exterior is deceiving as you find a great school pride permeating the school. Visitors will quickly find grandparents, mothers, fathers and relatives volunteering in the classrooms and planning events.

In 2004, Turnagain was excited to welcome the Anchorage School District’s (ASD) Russian Language Immersion. This MIR (Mission In Russian) helps students become functionally proficient in speaking, reading, and writing both English and Russian as young students have a natural advantage when learning a second language. The enthusiastic PTA welcomes anyone to get involved with our school and “Get Your Growl On” with our great students and staff. Now that’s Tiger Pride!
