New safety and security in place for 2013-2014 school year

Penn-Harris-Madison has implemented many new safety and security initiatives in our schools over the summer for the coming school year. Here are a few of the changes you will notice:

Classroom doors and permanent classroom walls have been added where needed and all classrooms will have doors that can be locked by the teacher.

New doors in school corridors can be electronically closed and secured from the main office.

Elm Road rated an A school

Elm Road has been rated an A school by the Indiana Department of Education. This grade reflects Elm Road’s most recent academic performance and is calculated based on data collected throughout each school year. The grade takes into account a variety of factors including student performance and student growth. For more information and to see the report card, go to the Indiana Department of Education’s COMPASS website.

Positive Schoolwide Behavior Support

Elm Road Elementary School strives to maintain a learning community whereby all students are expected to perform at high levels. This vision is manifested in the school motto, "Putting Dreams into Flight." In addition, we recognize the need for providing a safe and orderly environment conducive to learning. Elm Road's "Positive Schoolwide Behavior Support Plan" was developed as a proactive, rather than reactive support system.

Kids Club

Kids Club is a childcare program designed to provide children of working parents with childcare in a safe, home-like atmosphere. The program provides care for children in kindergarten through grade five. Kids Club members are able to choose from a variety of recreational, social and enrichment activities each day.
