Eisenhower Elementary School

 

 About Our School


Eisenhower has served Boulder Valley families since 1971. It is a cohesive and creative neighborhood school that fosters excellence. Our concept of neighborhood has expanded to include families from all over the district and surrounding metro areas. We are proud of our diversity and we believe that every individual in the community brings something unique and special to our school.

Eisenhower has a strong academic curriculum, a vibrant arts program, a comprehensive music program, and a vigorous PE program. Our special education programs support each child’s educational plan. We have literacy programs designed to assess growth in literacy and provide support to our students. The English as a Second Language program serves students from around the world, assisting them in mastering English. Our Talented and Gifted program offers options for our most able students. We have a variety of before- or after-school clubs and a large variety of community activities for students. The YMCA provides before- and after-school child care.

We judge our success using a body of evidence measuring student achievement toward district and state standards. We reflect on a child’s daily work, tests, papers and classroom interactions, taking into account a student’s abilities and interests. We examine literacy assessments and the results of the CSAP. Our CSAP scores have earned us the John Irwin School of Excellence Award. We are committed to each child being proficient in all areas of their education so that they may be competent, successful and content in their future.

It is our goal to see each student reach his or her great est potential through hard work, fun, perseverance, and real accomplishment. We strive to have our students understand the wonder of learning and the importance of community.

School visits or calls are always welcome!
