What Makes Audubon Elementary Special?

During the school year, the Audubon student population will run between 640 to 660 students. A staff of 70plus takes an active, caring role in every student's life.

We provide an educational atmosphere in which children are given opportunities to practice making good choices, but are held responsible for improper ones. Staff members work diligently with students to develop and practice respect as they deal with each other. Our goal is to make school a safe, comfortable and positive learning environment.

Audubon staff members set high expectations for all students and work with each toward achieving them. All students have the opportunity to earn Golden E's for outstanding work habits and social growth. Students in grade four through six can receive academic recognition by receiving Outstanding or Superior Honor Roll certificates and awards. Audubon is an identified Washington State Reading Corp School. We currently have over 50 volunteers working with students in the building. They work with all children in the classrooms, meeting individual needs, providing a shared language, and using effective instructional practices in efforts to meet the district's and state's learning targets.

Audubon has a comprehensive and effective instruction design based on literacy blocks with every class having a support team scheduled for 30 minutes each day. Each team consists of a certificated facilitator, two instructional assistants, and parent volunteers who help meet individual needs, provide a shared language and practice effective teaching techniques.

Audubon is a great place to learn. We stand proud of our accomplishments!
