About the school: Kate Shepard Elementary strives to become a premier educational campus where students engage in multiple hands-on, innovative, and rigorous learning opportunities. Our strength lies in our ability to foster high expectations through positive relationships.

We are a Nearpod Certified School. Many teachers have Clever, Nearpod, LETRS, and Google Classroom certification.

We expect our teachers and staff to KNOW our students by building positive and encouraging relationships. Our students KNOW that they are learning in a safe and secure environment.  Students also KNOW that we have high expectations and they can and will achieve greatness.  

We must all show LOVE, kindness, and compassion to others.  

We expect all students to GROW.  The faculty and staff at Shepard will nurture and cultivate growth in our students academically, socially, and emotionally. There is a scholar in us all. 

We are lifelong learners with great potential for lifelong success. KNOW. LOVE. GROW.
