What Makes Our School Unique?

    Tulip Grove Elementary continues to emphasize the strong commitment to serve the students and families in our community. As an accredited school through the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, we take pride in a high level of community involvement, an outstanding staff with a wide variety of skills and experience in addition to exceptional students. As we “raise the bar” for learning, we continue to encourage students to show excellence in academics, personal growth and good citizenship.
    Opportunities to assess and individualize the progress of each student will be met through the implementation of Standards for reading, writing, math, social studies and science. With a focus on the future, it is crucial that we work together as a community to take responsibility for providing the very best educational experience for our students. Come and join us as we live up to our motto: “Raising the Bar for Success.”
