Welcome to Atkinson Elementary

Home of the All-Stars

Atkinson Elementary School is an inclusive learning environment growing with positive energy and effort. Our school community embraces the philosophy and goals of North Andover Public Schools around academic and social expectations. Our mission is to cultivate a safe, respectful community of students who can critically-think and communicate effectively while preparing for their next levels of learning.

Atkinson School is the "Home of the All-Stars" and it’s also the birthplace of our town's RAISE values: Respect, Achievement, Inclusion, Service & Empathy. Our students are encouraged to be high achievers and productive citizens and to demonstrate RAISE values everyday. Atkinson educators present our children opportunities for academic and social-emotional growth that build on our community values and beliefs.

We expect our 365 students in grades 1-5 to be the all-stars of today and tomorrow; good and smart people who lead by example. As a community of talented teachers and supportive families, we'll be RAISE-ing the bar as high as we can for our children. This year, we want every all-star kid and adult to go out and prove that RAISE is the Craze!

    A Message from the Superintendent of Schools

     

    Dear North Andover Community,

    It’s hard to believe it’s been only three days since our Annual Town Meeting. It was heartening to see such a large and engaged turnout—residents of all ages showing up to take part in meaningful decisions that shape our town and schools. Your presence affirmed something we all know: North Andover cares deeply about its children and their education.

    Several important decisions were made Tuesday night that will have a direct impact on North Andover Public Schools (NAPS), and I’d like to take this opportunity to summarize those outcomes and share our next steps. I also want to address a social media post that misrepresents both my words and intentions, and I feel it’s important to clarify the facts for our community.
