Rigorous and meaningful instruction coupled with a genuine commitment to children make Almaden Elementary School an exceptional environment for learning. A strong focus on reading and mathematics is the cornerstone of our sustained, substantive academic program that includes science, social studies and English language development. Almaden teachers receive extensive professional development in the very best teaching strategies and assessment practices in elementary education today. Our program is supplemented by our new hands-on Science Life Lab, Before & After School Learning Centers, a state of the art iMac computer lab, and the Children’s Discovery Museum BioSITE education program, in which students learn the skills of scientific research in the field, mentored by Pioneer High School biology students. Our active PTA provides supplemental academic opportunities for our school community, and ELAC (English Learners Advisory Council) helps to ensure the best education for English learning students.
