Principal’s Message from Nancy Willis

Welcome to Old Kings Elementary School, home of the proud owls, where we “Always Fly Right And Give a Hoot”.

Congratulations to OKES for receiving an “A” grade for the 2010-11 school year. We are proud of our students, staff and volunteers for working diligently to receive an “A” .

At Old Kings Elementary School we join together with our parents, students, staff and community to promote high expectations and academic excellence through a respectful, responsible and safe environment. Our first goal this year is to meet AYP by a minimum of 86% of our students scoring at or above grade level in reading and math. The second goal is to communicate more effectively with parents, students, staff and community as evidenced by a beginning and end of the year survey completed by students, staff and parents.
Our third goal is through the consistent use of Positive Behavior we will establish a climate where appropriate behavior is the norm as evidenced by at least 10% reduction of student referrals for the 2011-2012 school year.

When parents, community, teachers and administrators work together we provide wonderful learning experiences for our students.

Raising Student Achievement Every Day, Every Way
