Mission Statement:
Eastside is caring people working/playing/learning together, caring about the future and our responsibilities within the community.
Program Description:
Eastside offers a strong academic program that emphasizes basic skills through an integrated curriculum, cooperative learning approach. In a positive, caring environment, children are given responsibility for their behavior and participate in decisions making and problem-solving processes. We emphasize communication between home and school.
School Highlights:
- Strong academics, with an emphasis on language arts and math taught in small, mixed-age classes based on skill and need
- Project Based Learning: student choice in a thematic integrative curriculum based on teacher strengths and interest
- Advisee Group: children in grades first through fifth meet together with a teacher four times a week in a family to develop problem-solving and decision making skills
- Homeless Family Project: staff and Families work together to sponsor a homeless family
- Many Traditions and Celebrations: the Peace Festival, a winter celebration featuring a choir and culminating presentations from special projects; and Eastside Express, a school-wide spring musical production
School Improvement Goals:
- To increase the achievement of all students by maintaining small class sizes, using a developmentally appropriate, and continuous progress model
- To develop a culture of respect and caring that supports student achievement
