Situated on a 10-acre site in west Tulsa, Remington Elementary prides itself on having a total environmental center for students. A trail system throughout the ten acres and a grant from the Environmental Protection Agency has made possible a center for the study of alternative energy forms, a large pond and a butterfly garden for student use. Remington teachers focus on providing a very non-threatening classroom environment, designed so that students may concentrate and perform to the best of their ability.
Teachers work together to plan thematic units revolving around science and social studies classes.
Language arts and math programs are based upon these themes, allowing students the chance to delve into subjects with more precision and depth. Three classes pair first and second graders together, with the balance of the students remaining in classrooms at their specific grade level with one teacher. Music and physical education classes are based as pull-out programs. Character education is an important component of Remington Elementary. Students are taught the life skills of trust, honesty, integrity and character development through exciting, challenging lessons.
