The Office of Elementary Education provides operational and instructional support to students and staff in 17 schools across the district. 

The Syracuse City School District elementary and Pre-K-8 schools are committed to all students meeting and exceeding the New York State Learning Standards and provide daily instruction in:

  • Reading, writing, listening and speaking across all content areas
  • Mathematical thinking, problem solving, and skill acquisition
  • Content and procedural instruction in science, social studies and health
  • Higher-order thinking skills integrated across content areas
     

Special subject areas are an integral part of the elementary school experience.

In addition, student-centered Library Media Centers in each school, staffed by licensed professionals, serve as a focal point for literacy.
