In 1881, farmers Frank and Warren Allison named their property on Sentinel Peak (commonly known as “A” Mountain) Flowing Wells because of the abundant water on and around the farm. In 1889, the Rillito School District was formed in the area of the Flowing Wells farm and a one-room schoolhouse was built. In 1928, by an error in documentation, the name Rillito School District was omitted from the Arizona School Directory and the name Flowing Wells School District was inserted. Ever since that fateful event, Flowing Wells has defined a tight community in northwest Tucson. The school district now serves 6,000 students in ten, A+ state recognized, neighborhood schools. We welcome you to learn more about this unique district and community. ![]() Welcome to Flowing Wells School District! You will experience:
