The James Russell Lowell Elementary School, being part of a multicultural community, strives to create a climate of safety, mutual respect and equity.  By doing this, we utilize the strengths of our many cultures to enable all of our students to reach their potential.  In order to accomplish this goal, we have created and maintain a school climate where teaching and learning is priorities.

Our Vision

The vision of the Lowell School is to create an educational climate of safety, mutual respect and equity. Lowell School is a community of children, educators and parents working together to create a happy, safe learning environment. Our child-centered approach fosters free thinking, curiosity and risk taking. In order to accomplish this goal, we will mature, strengthen, and expand the existing partnerships of students, staff, parents, and community. Our community’s foundation relies on the trust and respect we give one another. Through site selection we attract teachers, largely from our pool of student teachers, who share our vision.
