John P. Sprys - Principal Accreditation Accreditation is a process through which the staff, district personnel, and Board of Education commit to meet a set of preconditions or standards, necessary for quality education. Additionally, the process fosters school improvement through requirements for self-study, a visitation by other educators, and evaluation of programs and services. Elmwood Elementary School was accredited by the North Central Association in 1993. In addition, our staff and students have fulfilled the ongoing requirements of interim accreditation as determined by the Michigan State Board of Education. All children can learn.
Parents are essential partners in the educational process.
Everything and everybody can improve. People are our most important asset. Early achievement is the foundation of continuing success. Each person has intrinsic worth. The staff of Elmwood School believes that every child can learn.
