YMCA at Edgewood Intermediate

Lowell Elementary School offers challenging academic programs for all students. Lowell students and staff have worked together since 1994 to develop and maintain our Outdoor Lab, which includes several outdoor learning environments including a pond, walking trail, and prairie. A log cabin was completed in August, 1999 with the help of volunteers and community members, including a local unit of the National Guard. We strive to offer rigorous coursework both through classroom resources and learning as well through our outdoor learning environment.

Lowell School, working together with the home and community, provides a safe, orderly, and trusting environment where students acquire meaningful academic achievement and social skills which will enable them to become responsible members of society.

We believe...

that encouraging excellence promotes high achievement.

that being present and engaged in the learning process contributes to personal success.

that family involvement benefits student achievement.

that respecting individuals and cultures is necessary for a positive learning climate.

that curriculum should be personalized, integrated, relevant, and extend beyond the classroom to promote lifelong learners.

that each individual is important and must be treated with civility and respect.

that an orderly and caring environment contributes to positive attitudes and personal success for learners.
