School Philosophy

Our vision for Eakin Elementary School family and community is one in which all learners, both children and adults, grow and succeed in the 21st century.  We celebrate the diversity of cultures and value individual differences. We work to support our learners and expect the very best, because our students are capable and we believe in them.

Curriculum

Reading, math, English as a Second Language, science, social studies, health, art, music and physical education is aligned to Ohio’s Learning Standards. Students have an opportunity to use chrome books, thin client computers, Smart Boards and other technology in the classroom. (We are working towards having 1:1 computer access)  

Community Partnerships

Eakin partners with Community in Schools to provide integrated student support. Our CIS site coordinator works with volunteers, partners and the local community to provide students with the support they need to succeed both inside and outside the classroom. Buckeye Ranch partners with Eakin as we develop a strength-based, family-centered, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive system. Final Third Foundation partners with Eakin to provide a Soccer & Literacy Program in partnership with Columbus Recreation and Parks Department. This after-school program  promotes health, wellness, achievement, leadership and character development, both on and off the field.
