The Christina Huddleston Elementary School community will teach students to become self-directed learners and successful communicators by providing a nurturing learning environment focused on academics. We are a Kindergarten through sixth grade school, with an enrollment of about 630 students, and a staff of about 75 licensed and non-licensed employees. Huddleston Elementary opened in 1982 and was named after an active long-time area resident, Christina Streefland Huddleston. Located in the heart of a residential area, our attendance area is quite concentrated. The grounds of our school include several playing fields, a terrific winter sliding hill, a great playground structure, and three gardens.
Technology is an important part of our school's daily life.
Our Media Center, located in the heart of our school, contains both printed and electronic information sources. The computer lab contains a network of Apple computers, updated in 1998. Each classroom and office has a telephone, a computer with Internet access and a printer. Each classroom and teaching area has a television linked to a central video distribution center. With internal and external cable access, it serves as a teaching tool as well as a window to the world.
