Neil A. Armstrong School

Thank you for visiting the website of Armstrong School! Built in 1969, Armstrong is a primary building that serves approximately 200 students in kindergarten through second grade.

Armstrong offers a variety of educational experiences for its students. Placing primary emphasis on the language arts skills of reading and writing, our students are supported by both a literacy program and an at-risk reading program. In addition, guided reading is utilized in all first and second grade classrooms as a means of individualizing reading instruction and practice to the specific skill levels of each student.

Math and science are additional areas of emphasis at Armstrong. In math, we balance the daily practice of foundational skills and concepts with open-ended mathematical problem-solving. We aim to engage students in hands-on activities in science, exposing them to scientific skills and concepts while encouraging higher-level thinking skills.

In addition to the subject areas of reading, writing, math, and science, one of Armstrong's goals is to improve our ability to differentiate instruction to meet individual students' needs.
