Welcome to Tom Daniels Elementary School, where
we believe in active learning, a success-oriented curriculum, and
a climate of character, respect, and responsibility.
Our instructional program focuses on the acquisition of basic
reading, writing, and mathematical literacy for all students. We
accomplish this through integrated instruction, where all skills
are reinforced through team projects and shared studies.
Our Character Counts character education program has enhanced
the school climate and increased understanding, caring, and concern
among students. “Pride” folders, a student behavior
report to parents, are sent to parents weekly.
Tom Daniels Elementary School serves kindergarten through fifth
grade students, with an enrollment around 600 students.
We are proud of our school, and invite you to share that pride!

The Tom Daniels Elementary student was nominated by his homeroom teacher, Bibi Brown, for having outstanding character traits and making great character choices. Shares Brown, “Jesus is always very helpful and kind to his teachers and peers. He displays great sportsmanship and is always willing to put forth his best effort in everything he attempts to accomplish.”
