Will Rogers
Students at Will Rogers Elementary School are growing up during an exciting time in history, with opportunities open to them that might have seemed unimaginable a few decades ago. Our faculty and staff are ready to prepare our students for a world that is constantly changing. To meet this challenge, Rogers’s students will apply technology, math/science, and communications skills every day. Through classroom experiences, educational partnerships, and extra-curricular activities, students will learn how to build positive relationships with others. Since learning is a life-long process, we aspire to instill a love for learning by encouraging curiosity and discovery in every child. We are determined to be a school that embodies our community’s spirit and pride.
Our theme for the 2012-13 School Year is: BUILDING THE DREAM!
Not only will we begin construction for a NEW SCHOOL of our dreams - but we want to DREAM BIG for our Students and Community.
Please join us in reaching these ambitious endeavors !
