Welcome to the Elementary Division of Escuela Campo Alegre!
The Elementary School at ECA is dedicated to providing a safe environment that is conducive to learning for all students. We know that each child has strengths and we help them build on these allowing for their individuality, diversity, and uniqueness.
ECA is an inclusive learning community that encourages students to be compassionate, lifelong learners, responsible global citizens, and champions of their individual success. This is our mission. Our mission rightly puts our students at the center of all that we do. We have a highly qualified and dedicated staff that are committed to addressing the academic, social, and emotional needs of our students.
Our curriculum continues to be standards-based and internationally recognized standards have been adopted for all areas of our curriculum. As well as offering the core subjects of Mathematics, Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies, we have a strong specialist curriculum in Art, Music, Physical Education, Information Technology, Media/Library skills, and Spanish. We follow the philosophical belief that when outcomes are identified and taught utilizing common standards, unit plans, and innovation, enduring student understanding is the result.
We believe the education of the child is the shared responsibility of the school and family and work to foster a strong home/school partnership. As we work together as members of the ECA community we are confident that you and your child will have a memorable and dynamic year filled with meaningful learning experiences. We look forward to working closely with you as we learn together during the school year.
Respectfully,
Michelle Till – ECA Elementary School Principal
