Welcome to Athlone Elementary School!
Athlone is located in the Athlone Community and includes the Dunvegan Community west of the school. Our school is a working partnership between students, staff, parents, and the community. We are a student-centered school who are committed to strong educational programs delivered in a supportive, nurturing, and safe environment. Our school-wide focus on literacy in all subject areas provides a strong foundation for students which allows them to achieve their own optimal levels across the curriculum.
We are part of the Equity Achievement Project and an Apple school.
At Athlone School, we believe that a child's career pathway begins at birth. We strive to do much more than help them answer the question "What will I be when I grow up?" by providing opportunities to learn and strengthen the skills and resources they need to be a confident person. This includes giving children opportunities to apply what they have learned to real-life situations; giving them hands-on experiences; using goal-setting to keep focused on what’s important; and providing formative feedback so they can reflect and grow.
