What Makes Our School Unique?
Welcome to Tusculum Elementary School! Tusculum is “home” to 626 students. Our enrollment size allows us to become a very caring and supportive school community. The faculty, staff and administration at Tusculum are dedicated to providing a safe, inviting and positive instructional environment for every child. It is our goal to provide a wide variety of educational experiences that will prepare our students to become successful citizens.
When you walk into Tusculum it is apparent that “children come first.” We believe that all children can learn and should have the opportunity to develop mentally, physically, socially, and emotionally to his or her full potential. Teachers and parents hold high expectations for student achievement. Our faculty is composed of excellent teachers who are lifelong learners and are constantly learning to improve their teaching strategies.
Parental involvement is a key to the success of the total school program at Tusculum. We have many parents who volunteer hours of service through our active PTO.
We do truly believe that "the greatest kids go to Tusculum School.” "Tusculum - where ALL children succeed EVERY day.”
