Welcome To Our School

Our Vision

The vision of Lingelbach Elementary School is to ensure every student who enters will leave on grade-level or above in all content areas. Learning will be enhanced through the use of environmental studies, the arts, and technology in a clean and safe environment. In achieving this, students will be able to enter the high school of their choice for further preparation for college and/or career.

Mission Statement

Through professional development, educators will utilize best practices in the academic, cognitive, and social development of students. Parents will ensure that students are present and on time each day to receive high-quality instruction. Students, with the support of the school community, will take ownership of their learning; and develop peer mediation and conflict resolution skills. School support staff is included in decision-making and problem-solving strategies for the school community.
