Description: The years spent in elementary school are very important to the long-term development of each child, for it is during these years that most children are first introduced to a diverse set of formal learning processes, forming the foundation on which the rest of their school career will be built. It is the objective of the Hempfield Elementary Schools to engage students in learning experiences that are positive and growth-focused. To accomplish this aim, we strive to provide students with challenging, developmentally appropriate instruction and the support necessary to build the strong foundation needed for success now and in the future.
Our district’s elementary program includes learning experiences in language arts, mathematics, science, health, social studies, art, music andphysical education. Teachers work very hard to develop relationships with students and to gather information regarding interests and background experiences that can be used to tailor learning experiences to facilitate growth of the “whole child.” A rich diversity of guided learning experiences focused on standards-based instruction and each student’s social and emotional growth constitute the “backbone” of our elementary program.
Members of our elementary staff look forward to working cooperatively with parents to cultivate a positive and rewarding experience for our students. We urge parents to take an active interest in school activities through attendance at school functions. We also request that parents make their child’s regular attendance of school a top priority; because the correlation between attendance and student success at school is so strong, we believe it is essential that regular attendance be maintained so that our students can fully realize the benefits of our education program. Through a strong partnership between the home and school marked by clear communication, cooperation, and mutual support of the students, we are confident that our elementary students' school experience will be successful.
