JP Dabbs Elementary School
History of Dabbs
Dabbs Elementary was built and ready for classes in 1977. The first group of students entered Dabbs in the fall of 1977, with a total enrollment of 601 students. The building was designed and built as an "open concept" building. Over the years, the "open concept" has been modified, with walls being added between grade levels.
Curriculum
The curriculum at Dabbs Elementary is designed to teach the students "the basics and a whole lot more." The primary grades (K-2) emphasize literacy, knowing that a strong foundation in reading will lead to success in all areas. Students in grades 3-5 continue to recive a balanced curriculum in reading, writing, math, and the social sciences, with particular emphasis given to the TEKS (Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills).
