Principal Welcome

Welcome to Tyndall Elementary School! Tyndall elementary school is an elementary school with a tradition of excellence, where teachers hold high expectations for themselves as well as students.  Being located on Tyndall Air Force Base, Tyndall Elementary has a strong foundation of patriotism and a wide base of parental support.  Teachers are flexible in their instruction of the Florida State Standards, using many methods to differentiate to reach all students’ learning modalities.  The staff believes that every student can learn and then works to create a safe environment where learning and doing one’s best is priority #1! Our school motto is T.E.S.-Taking Education Seriously...NO EXCUSES!!

In January of 2003, Tyndall was recognized as one of the twenty top performing schools in the state by the Florida School Report’s Best Practices study.  More recently, in April of 2012, Tyndall Elementary was recognized for being in the top 10% of all elementary schools in the state of Florida in the 2011 ranking of Florida schools by the Florida Department of Education.  Tyndall Elementary has earned an "A" grade 18 out of 20 years on the School Accountability Report.  Tyndall has also received the honor of being a Gold Level Model School for the past 3 years. As we move into school year 2020/2021, Tyndall Elementary is planning to shift to a combination elementary and middle school. Starting with 6 th grade in year 2020/2021, a new grade will be added each year until we serve students from Pre-K through 8 th grade.
