Castle Rock Elementary School (CRE) is an exciting place to be! CRE is a community of learners pursuing higher levels of understanding in order to meet individual and school goals. Our school supports an imbedded staff development model that provides science and literacy learning opportunities and support for our teachers within the context of their classroom environments.
We are proud of our student achievement goals and our progress toward them. We are also proud of the many other opportunities available for children at CRE. Our outdoor education programs begin in fourth grade and continue through sixth grade. We have an outdoor habitat learning lab that has been recognized by the National Wildlife Federation as an official schoolyard habitat site. Our students created the site plan, organized work days, and created this lab on our school grounds.

A primary focus at CRE for more than a decade has been to help all students improve in reading and writing. CRE was one of the first schools to be trained in a district initiative called Literacy Instructional Framework for Teaching (LIFT). This framework reinforces our understandings about teaching literacy. We are committed to improving student mastery of reading and writing standards.
