Welcome to Barack and Michelle Obama Service Learning Elementary!
We hope you have all had a wonderful, restful summer, and are looking forward to an exciting, productive school year! The first day of class for students in grades 1-6 is Tuesday, September 7, and for pre-K and Kindergarten, Thursday, September 9. See you then!
Obama Service Learning Elementary is a school on the move! This year, we are changing our magnet focus to "Academic Service Learning" as we strive to build a community of learners and strong community connections.
Obama Service Learning is a Responsive Classroom school, bringing together a diverse student population through social and academic learning. Students are provided hands-on experiences and an opportunity to develop in-depth knowledge and skills through academic service learning projects and enrichment classes including Art, Reader's Theater, Cultural Explorations, and Science. Homeroom teachers provide students with a strong foundation in reading, writing, math, and social studies. Teachers integrate technology into classroom instruction through the use of two computer labs and classroom computers.
Our PTO and Site Council work together with the staff to create an exciting and challenging school environment. Join us on a journey to higher academic achievement for all students.
Special features include: - Pre-Kindergarten
- All-Day Kindergarten
- Student Leadership
- Academic Service Learning
- Strong Arts Program including Art, Reader's Theater, Band, and Public Art
