  • ABOUT ALPINE LAKES ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

    Alpine Lakes Elementary School is located in Leavenworth, Washington and serves students in grades 3-5. Alpine Lakes draws students from the communities of Leavenworth, Plain, Dryden, Peshastin, Lake Wenatchee, Winton, and the Blewett Pass area. Our students come from a wide range of socio-economic backgrounds and ethnic.

    Alpine Lakes Elementary School’s professional staff of certified teachers, para-professionals, office personnel, custodians, counselor, and principal provide a safe, caring school where the focus is the academic and emotional growth of young people. 

    The instructional and AVID program reflects an outcome-based philosophy, in which we believe that all kids will be career and college ready when they leave the Cascade School District. Our clearly defined expectations, AVID instructional strategies, and extended opportunities for remediation and extension are built into the school day.

    Alpine Lakes Elementary School’s curriculum includes mathematics, science, language arts, social studies, reading, health, art, and physical education. All students also take specialist courses, which include music, art, library, and physical education. Migrant/bilingual programs, Title I and Learning Assistance Program, Highly Capable Program, and an inclusion model in the Special Education program are available for qualified students.  We also focus our social/emotional learning around our Character Strong program.

  • WHERE ARE WE GOING?

    We are a collaborative team committed to creating a successful and meaningful transition for all students from the elementary grades to Icicle River Middle School and beyond.

    We use performance-based curriculum, with the integration of technology, to enhance student learning. We are continuing to strive toward every student meeting standard on the state exams in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. As well as ensuring that students meet standards in the arts and other academic programs.

    Our direction is focused on encouraging students to become self-reliant, independent and self-disciplined learners who take responsibility for their own education and actions. We continue to work on our goals through professional development, team teaching, cooperative learning and integration of classes and curriculum.  We are interested in developing greater communication between students, parents and school staff, to create a greater appreciation and understanding of different life-styles and cultures.

    We ensure high academic performance from students. We stress the need for students to be organized and produce quality work. In order for students to perform well, we need parent help. Students need to come to school ready to learn; well fed, well rested, and academically prepared. Parents are an important part of the learning team. We encourage parents to get involved by reviewing classroom and school goals, attending parent/teacher conferences, and getting involved in the Parent Teacher Organization (PTO), and attending student performances, fieldtrips, music programs, spelling bees, etc.

    Teachers at Alpine Lakes Elementary School are continually upgrading their skills in effective methods of instruction. Staff development is a high priority in this building and time is provided for working on curriculum, assessment, instructional strategies, and National Board Certification. The staff utilizes a site-base decision making that involves staff members in planning for the needs of students here at Alpine Lakes Elementary School.
