Okte Elementary

  • Okte students transformed themselves into circus performers. Students at Okte learned circus skills in their PE class. Fifth graders opted to specialize in platespinning, balancing, stilt walking, or other skills. The 5th graders then put on a show for their school community.

Mission:

We envision a school in which staff, students and community:

  • focus on what we expect all students to learn, examine how we will know if they have learned it and know how we will respond if students have/have not learned.
  • create an environment that promotes and celebrates effective and on-going communication and respect.
  • develop and maintain our capacity to function as a professional learning community with a common purpose and clear goals.
  • encourage risk taking that promotes personal and academic growth.
  • embrace 21st century, project-based learning.
  • demonstrate a personal commitment to the academic success and general well-being of all students.
