Atkins Elementary

These students at Atkins Elementary are putting so many important skills to work as they build words! From recognizing letter patterns and connecting sounds to letters to problem-solving and working together, they're strengthening their literacy skills through hands-on learning.

We love seeing our young Bobcats engaged, thinking, and growing as readers and writers! 💙💛

My favorite thing about being a Bobcat is seeing the growth in the students.

Happy Custodian Appreciation Day! Thank you to our amazing custodians for all you do to keep our schools clean, welcoming and ready for our students to learn. We appreciate you!
