We are a PreK-5th grade elementary school located on Winding Road. We serve students from the surrounding area including Laurel Island, Mariner's Landing, Crooked River, Winding River, and Lake Bridge subdivisions. Our principal is Mike Van Horn. We also house the Language Delayed, OI, MO and MI Special Education classes for St. Marys.
Our school community has adopted the following beliefs to guide us as we work with each other to educate our students.
We believe...
- the childhood years (kindergarten through fifth grade) are the developmental period that form the foundation for all life experiences.
- educational success results from cooperative efforts by the student, family, school and community.
- every individual deserves respect, dignity, and acceptance in a safe, nurturing environment.
- learning is a life-long process.
- effective membership in a democratic society requires informed, literate, aware citizens who possess critical thinking skills.
- high standards for achievement coupled with high expectations of ethical and moral behavior foster a positive learning environment in which all can thrive.
