Oakton Elementary School is home to approximately 400 students from kindergarten through fifth grade. Most instruction is from a homeroom teacher, differentiated to meet the needs of individual learning styles and ability. Specials, such as fine arts, physical education, and media library are taught outside the homeroom. In these disciplines, students continue to benefit from highly qualified teachers who have specialized knowledge or certifications. Teachers also have opportunities for continued learning to help them stay current in best educational practices.
Faculty and staff work in cooperation with students, their families, and the larger community to foster academic achievement, creativity, and positive character development that prepare children as lifelong learners and responsible, productive citizens.
Mission:
Oakton Elementary School educates each child through their own talents and gifts to pursue academic excellence and become socially responsible. We welcome all, teach all, and honor differences among every member of our learning community.
