2006 California Distinguished School
2007 and 2008 Academic Achievement Award
Elliott Elementary is an award winning California Distinguished school. This year we were honored again by the California Department of Education as a Title I Academic Achieving school. These honors are the product of our community’s dedication to continuous improvement in student achievement. In striving for excellence, our students learn and achieve success.| Our core belief at Elliott is focusing on the whole child. We pride ourselves on maintaining a balance between academic, social, and emotional growth. With learning being our top priority, Elliott students participate in a rigorous and challenging standards-based curriculum supplemented by the global studies units. Students have many opportunities for success with the leveled intervention, GATE, multicultural music, passport P.E., technology instruction, our Global Address program, Student Council, school newspaper staff, Monday Morning Message, digital photography, track team, and band. |

| All Elliott students perform at least twice a year in our school-wide musical productions lead by Elliott’s music specialist Mrs. Kane. Students participate in the chorus, vocal or instrumental solos, dance, and instrumental groups with a multicultural theme. Many of the students sing in different languages during the performances. Our band performs concerts at least twice a year. The highlight of the year is the Elementary Band-O-Rama in May. |

Cultures are celebrated in October by encouraging students to wear their clothing representing their heritage for a multicultural parade.
Every year we are amazed by the beautiful dresses and detailed outfits the girls and boys wear at the parade. The pride on the students’ faces is reflected
in their smiles. |
Open House is a "Passport to the World" with students sharing the art, traditions, daily life, history, geography, and unique animals of their Global Address country with their families. Each classroom is transformed to reflect another country and the students "tour" with their parents. Parents and community members are invited to tour from continent to continent as they move around the school.
Parents are encouraged to participate in their child’s education. There are many ways in which parents can be involved such as classroom volunteers, join the PTA, or become members of our School Site Council, provide donations, or help at one time events. Please contact the school office for more information. We know that by working together, we will have a rewarding 2008-2009 school year.
| Student projects represent Kenyan masks, Mexican Artists, Egyptian artifacts and Japanese Writing. |
