Harriette W Gwin Elementary School

About Us

Gwin Elementary will establish a strong foundation for lifelong learning for all students by providing opportunities for academic, social, physical, and emotional growth in a child-centered environment. We will use a variety of research-based strategies to ensure that each student reaches his/her maximum potential. 

We believe: 

• All children can learn and experience success. 
• Instruction and assessment should be multi-faceted and implemented through best practices. 
• Children build on prior knowledge, so they will be provided meaningful opportunities to construct their own knowledge through a multitude of experiences. 
• An environment that encourages curiosity, risk-taking, and self-expression is essential for learning. 
• Cultural diversity, individualism, and compassion for others enhance our environment. 
• Continuous improvement is essential to the success of our children, school and community.
• The arts are an essential component in the overall development of our children.
