Community Partnerships Emerson has a strong partner in Downtown Kiwanis. This service organization provides volunteers for classrooms, as well as financial and other resources for science demonstrations and family-centered programs. A partnership with the African American Council at Kraft Foods provides volunteers and books to Emerson's Library Media Center. University Partnerships Emerson serves as a practicum site for three area university programs. We promote and provide quality teacher education for future teachers and ongoing advanced learning for our professional staff.
Instruction is child-centered, focusing on the process of learning.
Staff individualizes expectations and strategies to meet the needs of all learners. We encourage anyone interested to meet with staff or take a guided tour of the school. We encourage you to talk with parents of our students to learn more about our school. The best thing about Emerson is gym, the teachers and seeing my friends.
