Learn
Every student enters the classroom with different backgrounds and experiences that influence their academic preparedness. To help students prepare for elementary education, we offer free development screenings for pre-K children and a forward-thinking, comprehensive and rigorous 4K program. In our K – 5 programs, we help students discover their potential and abilities by: •
Providing hands-on learning opportunities that help them develop critical 21st century skills — the ability to communicate, collaborate, think critically and creatively, investigate, innovate, solve problems and persevere
• Allowing students to choose a flexible learning space where they learn and work best • Personalizing learning and allowing students to choose which instructional method suits them
Equity matters. Recently, Mountain Bay Elementary was recognized as a 2017 National Blue Ribbon School for closing the achievement gap.
• Securing digital learning tools on each student iPad that can be calibrated to a student’s unique learning style and abilities • Empowering them to choose how they demonstrate what they have learned • Screening students to identify who would benefit from more challenging academic options, assistance or intervention programs, and behavior or mental health supports
D.C. Everest is the only district in the region to offer an accelerated and differentiated curriculum for intellectually gifted elementary school students. The Advanced Learner/ Challenge Magnet Program is housed at Riverside Elementary.
Explore
Our elementary schools encourage students to explore interests beyond the classroom by providing them with a variety of extracurricular enrichment opportunities that utilize critical, imaginative and problem-solving skills. Each school offers a unique collection of student clubs that provide students with the chance to explore and share their independent interests — ukulele, gaming, chess, LEGO engineering, Rubik’s® Cube, writing, math, babysitting, books and more. We help students share their interests with their families and community members by hosting events that bring people together — whether it’s exploring math and celebrating our diverse cultures or competing in engineering challenges. Hatley Elementary’s school and community garden plays an important role in hands-on learning. It’s maintained by students and staff, used to demonstrate lessons in math, reading, science and social studies, and its fresh produce is often added to the daily lunch menu.
Grow We also encourage students to build interpersonal
and leadership skills by playing an active role in our community. Our elementary students have taken the lead on a wide variety of service projects including those that help elderly members of our community, honor the dedication of others, commemorate local history or assist families in need. Weston Elementary’s student-maintained Meditation Garden serves as a science classroom and as a quiet space to teach students social-emotional strategies that can help them stay focused, reduce stress and anxiety, and build self confidence. Rothschild Elementary’s school forest provides students with walking trails and a unique outdoor classroom to study sustainability and the environment. Students at Evergreen Elementary use an online personalized learning platform to progress at their own pace in Language Arts and Math as a supplement to regular instruction. Students can work above grade-level or get extra practice on specific concepts as needed.
