I think Elmwood Schools are unique. I think they are well above the standard, and I've thought that since I student taught here 30 years ago. To all of our graduates, I am confident that I speak for all of your teachers when I say this - we are, and always will be, here for you. Email us. Call us. Write us a letter. We will respond and we will meet your need. I've answered chemistry questions from former students via email. I've also taken phone calls late at night to help with chemistry questions. I don't mind. I want those questions. I have also gotten phone calls that are much more personal and challenging. I'm here for those, too We all are. Commencement is not an end. It is a beginning. That is its definition. You are being sent out into the world to make your mark. We are here to support you. Graduates - Godspeed. Elmwood is here for you. Mr Hollis

Congratulations to Ms. Katie Janovetz, our April Staff Member of the Month. As one of her colleagues stated "is a rare kind of educator who leaves a permanent mark on every person she meets. #TrojanWay

Our elementary students earned a fun reward for demonstrating amazing work habits during IAR testing. They got the chance to dunk their teachers! And boy, did they come through! Students took pictures with the staff member they dunked!

The water was definitely cold, but that didn’t stop anyone from having a great time. The students absolutely loved cheering each other on and taking turns dunking staff members who helped make the event possible. Lots of laughter, smiles, and memories made! We are so proud of our students! #TheTrojanWay

Ms. Little's top AR point earners enjoyed lunch and dessert at Mi Ranchito today!

Another year of our Elmwood history walk. Such a great experience. So thankful for Mrs MaryAnn Hanlin and Mrs. Pam Paige for sharing their knowledge with fourth grade!!

Let there be light! The Industrial Arts shop students started testing the wiring on their walls during todays class. They are wrapping up sanding, and next up is painting! #TrojanForge #TheTrojanWay #IndustrialArts

Mrs Hanlin never lets us down! We LOVE learning about our town! Thanks, Mrs Hanlin, for teaching 4th grade about Elmwood history.
