Our outstanding and experienced staff is passionate about teaching and learning. Our teachers make every school day count; classroom activities are meaningful learning experiences specifically designed to help students discover their own passions.
Eagle River Elementary School keeps class sizes small, emphasizing a caring, nurturing environment. Specials are an integral part of the overall curriculum and assist in our mission to educate the whole child. Teachers have a balanced focus on building social-emotional growth, academic skills, creativity, problem-solving and positive character traits.
All teachers use a wide variety of teaching techniques to engage learners, however you will commonly see students working on hands-on, student-centered projects, utilizing all parts of our campus from the floors of the hallways to the pond right behind our school. In addition to engaged learners, you will also see happy, confident students who get along exceptionally well with each other and their teachers. Every staff member, regardless of whether they teach a particular child or not, knows them well because we take the time to talk, laugh and learn with our kids every day. We know what makes them unique and we celebrate those traits.
