Our dedicated, enthusiastic staff provides an instructional program based on high expectations for academic performance. We strive to maintain a safe campus that promotes personal responsibility for student behavior and mutual respect among all members of our learning community.

Parent involvement is important at Almond Elementary. We invite and encourage parents to become active members of our learning community. We welcome volunteers to assist with classroom or school activities or to serve as members of our parent committees or organizations on campus. We look forward to the academic, social, and personal growth of our students and to the continued development of our learning community.
