  • Welcome to Independence Elementary – Home of the Eagles!

    We’re excited to welcome you to Independence Elementary, where our 800+ students soar to new heights in both academics and character. Serving children from Pre-K through 5th grade, our diverse campus is a place where every student’s unique abilities are celebrated and supported. As Eagles, we aim high, work hard, and support each other to achieve greatness.

    At Independence, we are committed to providing a high-performing educational experience that challenges our students to think critically, explore creatively, and build strong social-emotional skills. Our dedicated team of teachers creates an inclusive, engaging environment where every child is encouraged to become a confident learner and a compassionate leader.

    We’re proud of our strong academic achievements, but we also prioritize building character, respect, and community. Our Eagles are known for their kindness, their teamwork, and their determination to always do their best. Whether it's through our curriculum, enrichment programs, or school-wide initiatives, we focus on helping our students grow into well-rounded, responsible individuals.

    As we continue to soar as a school community, we invite you to be an active part of your child’s learning journey. Together, we will continue to build a school environment where every Eagle can reach their fullest potential.
