OUR VISION

Students with silly faces, sitting outside on a bench in Jamestown's playground.

We believe that when children are having fun, they're minds are open to learning. We believe that a happy child is a successful child. We are committed to providing a positive, safe and stimulating environment for our students, where everyone is valued. We intend that all our children should enjoy their learning, achieve their potential and leave Jamestown Elementary prepared to take on the world.

Jamestown Elementary School

Jamestown is a small mountain school with a dedicated team of two teachers and extensive support staff, serving grades K-5. Jamestown’s incredible student-to-teacher ratio allows individualized learning and creative and flexible educational approaches. Students work in small, multi-age groups. A developmental approach, rather than grade level approach is emphasized. Jamestown’s greatest strength is its welcoming and loving environment where students learn the lifelong lessons of patience, respect, integrity, determination, and empathy. Community and parent involvement are extremely valued.
