What Makes Our School Unique?
We are excited about our new school year. We have a wonderful combination of teachers and staff that have been working hard to make sure that all of our children receive the best education possible. We are also proud of our community involvement. Our PENCIL Partners support us with time, financial assistance and encouragement. Guest readers, lunch buddies and tutors are at Cora Howe on a regular basis. These tutors give a little extra boost to children in need. Our onsite Family Resource Center assists all of our families with any special needs they may have.
We have a focused staff that is determined to make sure all of our students are reading on grade level. We will provide interventions and tutoring to ensure their goals are met.
We invite you to come to Cora Howe and become a part of our learning community.
