About Us

 

Our Vision

The vision of Olney Elementary School is to create life-long learners and career ready citizens that celebrate diversity, model integrity, and exemplify excellence in everything they do.

Our Mission

It is the mission of our school to provide an active learning environment where each student is valued and challenged to meet his or her individual potential. Our learning community constantly strives to provide appropriate supports, challenges, consequences, and rewards. We endeavor to prepare our students to think independently, work cooperatively, and view obstacles as challenges to be met.

 

“Olney Elementary School is a kindergarten to eighth grade school that has routinely been celebrated for surpassing the PA standards for academic growth.  We have active enrichment programs and activities–before and during school–including Harlem Lacrosse, STEAM Works, and more.  The majority of our eighth graders were accepted into city-wide magnet or city-wide select high schools in the 2017-2018 school year.  We celebrate the diversity of our community and look to bring joy into the work we do with students each and every day.”
