Welcome to Edith L. Frierson Elementary School.

Greetings Everyone,

We continue to embrace the concept, “It takes a village to raise a child.” Our parents, mentors, volunteers and community members are assisting us in every way to make this happen successfully. In preparing to serve our children, much analyzing of our performance of the past year was done. In working to satisfy our insati8ble need to excel, we made what we believe to be significant changes. In keeping with our focus, we added best practices to our reading and math programs. We raised the bar for our children in all academic areas of instruction. We included all children by implementing hands-on approaches to science. Our teachers are constantly involved in training to promote acceleration for all.

To prepare for our children’s educational success, teachers and staff plan together. They can often be found discussing alternative strategies to help students succeed. They know the importance of parental input and, therefore, continue to seek parental involvement. We are grateful to our parents for supporting us by coming in for conferences, working with their children, and supporting school activities.

Our volunteers and mentors assist us in helping our children understand the value of giving and helping others. They also help our children to see their individual talents. We appreciate them, love them, and thank them for their untiring support. Our communities can boast of something that is uniquely theirs, and ours is the support and help we continue to receive from our Faith Community. Our Faith Community helps to instill values and build character as well as reward our students for their success. We say to them, thank you.

Our main goal will continue to be to help all of our children become lifelong learners and productive citizens of the world.
