Welcome to Albany Elementary where "Students Are Number 1." We are very proud of the heritage and tradition of our school. It is our goal to offer our students a balance of both academic opportunities and social experiences to foster well-rounded individuals. Albany Elementary has high expectations for its students in terms of achievement and self-control. We are pleased with the spirit and cooperation we are shown by our parent group and community businesses. Each year we have a large number of parent volunteers that support a variety of programs generated here at school. As you view the material contained here in our home page, we welcome you to come in and visit us or call (765-789-6102). Through the combined efforts of our teachers, staff, and community, we can accomplish our mission listed below: "The Albany Elementary School Family is dedicated to helping every student develop academically, emotionally, and socially, in a positive and accepting environment. We are committed to preparing our students to function as productive citizens who are ready to meet the challenges of an ever-changing society." We are proud of our school. We feel we have one of the finest elementary schools in all of Indiana. Our students, staff, and community take great pride in not only our building, but also in the achievements of our academic offerings. We are dedicated to meeting the individual needs of the children we serve. Each week brings us the opportunity to work with young people and make a difference in their lives.
