What school district is Little Elementary School part of?
This school has been amazing. My oldest just spent the last 6 years there and with 2 other kids, we will happily be at Little for another 6 years. The staff is all wonderful human beings who truly care about my children. They challenge my children academically when needed, while also offering guidance in areas they may struggle with. More importantly, the staff cares for my children's mental health and emotional well-being. The personal touches like encouraging notes mailed to our house make my kids feel special and seen. Their mental health team is extensive. I know my children are well taken care of. The classrooms offer hands-on learning like programming robots, historical reenactments, and arts integration. The teachers will often use the school garden for science lessons. The best part of this school is the sense of belonging and community. The school is welcoming to all people and strives for inclusivity. The support the parents have for the staff and vice versa is like nothing I have seen at any other school. The amount of care the school has for the surrounding neighborhood and community is unmatched. This school is a hidden gem and deserves as much love as it gives out.
