About Us

The Morgan School staff is committed to providing a quality educational program which addresses the academic, emotional, physical, and social growth of all of our students in a positive learning environment. We are determined to strengthen our students’ self-confidence and sensitivity to the diversity of our school community. The parents and staff work in cooperation to coordinate and provide enrichment and cultural experiences in the humanities, the arts, and the sciences. Student accomplishments are recognized on an ongoing basis and forums for the students to demonstrate their talents are provided. The staff stays abreast of current trends in education by participating in the district’s staff development programs on various topics and building-level professional learning communities and book studies.

Our program of instruction includes an integrated approach to Language Arts Literacy which includes whole group instruction, small guided reading groups and literacy centers. Writers Workshop programs are presented at all grade levels. Our Mathematics program is standards based and provides 80 minutes daily of mathematical concept development and practice, math centers, and guided math. Science and Social Studies are taught through projects, hands-on activities, and experiments. 

In addition to daily classroom instruction, Morgan School provides a number of special area resource programs in which eligible students may participate. All grade levels have the advantage of specialists in art, vocal music, library instruction, and physical education. Students are also taught American Sign Language. In addition, students may be eligible to become involved in such programs as Basic Skills Instruction, Speech Therapy, ESL, Advanced Learning Program for Students (ALPS), Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, and Instrumental Music based on their grade levels, varying talents, individual needs and abilities.

Achieving the goals of our educational programs would not be possible without the active involvement of parents and guardians. A strong, dedicated, and active Parent Teacher Association (PTA) enables us to achieve many of our school’s goals and enhances our programs. Morgan parents and guardians continue to be an integral part of our academic program. Our parents, guardians, and staff work together to provide enrichment and cultural experiences for our students. Our Morgan School parents volunteer their services on an ongoing basis. Our monthly calendar, Morgan Moments, is a cooperative effort to keep the Morgan community well informed of our students’ accomplishments and school programs and events. With parental support we will continue to raise the bar at Morgan School and rise to the challenge of developing and implementing a quality educational program designed to equip our students for successful and productive lives.
