Our Elementary Schools: Welcome to the neighborhood

Visit any of our neighborhood elementary schools and you will be greeted by colorful student artwork, messages about the importance of character, friendly staff eager to help children, and teachers and administrators focused on academic success.

We’ve created our elementary schools as welcoming, caring places where students in grades K-5 master the essential skills in preparation for a lifetime of learning.

Using research and the experience of our teachers, we’ve selected the best reading and math curriculum to support the needs of our diverse learners.

The elementary experience in Nampa is about more than basic skills. Our students also learn the building blocks of science, social studies, citizenship, and health complimented by art, music, and physical education in a comprehensive curriculum.

Parents want their young children close to home, so we strive to build neighborhood schools with large playgrounds, to allow girls and boys to safely walk or bike to school and play with their friends.

Our commitment to neighborhood schools is challenging in one of the state’s fastest growing communities. To keep up, we’ve built four new elementary schools in the past nine years, with another two schools scheduled to open in the next two years.

While we value neighborhood schools, we also know that for some children the best choice may not their nearby school. Our open enrollment policy allows us to work with many families to meet their needs.
