Just For Students... Emerson Elementary School

You're...At Home At
Emerson Elementary School!

At Home In Madison

Why should adults get all the information?!
You're moving too and you are the one who will be in school all day.
So, just for you, here are some fun reasons why you will think our school is the greatest!

Be an Eagle at Emerson!

Emerson's motto is Soar High with Emerson Pride! Our motto reminds us that we are proud as eagles at Emerson. We fly high and soar by our positive behavior, high achievement goals, and strong sense of social responsibility! Come experience life as an Emerson Eagle!

First Friends

Emerson celebrates and welcomes new students through First Friends! One of our fourth graders is just waiting to give you a tour, introduce you to teachers and the principal, and take your picture! This way we learn about you and you learn about Emerson!

Fun on the Playground!

Emerson's playground is the best! Our equipment is fun and you'll often find a game of catch going on during recess.

Fun with Science!

Emerson celebrates science each year! Show us your knowledge through our Science Fair or learn more about science at Family Science Night. These two events alternate between years so you're sure to catch one of them!

Learning in the Community!

Emerson students learn everywhere! Each classroom plans a variety of learning activities that take place off-campus. Our field trips are great!

Fun with Computers!

Our computer lab offers a variety of fun and informative web sites. Technology is a great learning tool at Emerson . . . and fun to use!

PTO Fun Nite

Emerson's Fun Nite offers a carnival you won't forget! There are games, a cake walk (with a Packer cake or two), and food! It's so much fun you don't mind bringing your parents!

Book Fair

Emerson's annual book fair features a character or two from your favorite book. It's always fun to see who might show up!

School Dance!

If you're a third, fourth, or fifth grader, you won't want to miss this fun event! A D.J. brings music, games, and prizes!

Spring Talent Show

Every spring, Emerson's talent steps forward for three fun-filled shows! Come to participate or just to watch!!

Fifth Grade Fun

Fifth graders celebrate their last year at Emerson with trips to the Milwaukee Museum and to Madison's Vilas Zoo. Fifth Grade Recognition tops off the last week of school with a kickball game against the parents and teachers. Who's going to win this year?

Emerson's Fun Day

This great event on the last Friday in May is a fun way to begin to wind down! We have fun runs and an obstacle course and many game booths put together by the classrooms. It's a fun and relaxing afternoon topped off with ice cream bars!

Open House Night

Let your parents come to school for an evening! Introduce them to your teachers and show them the school. It's fun for you to be able to give them a tour!

Concerts and Plays

Emerson classrooms host a variety of opportunities for students to perform for others. It's always fun to be part of a performance, whether you're in the audience or on stage!

Assemblies

Our PTO sponsors one or two assemblies each year. The topics vary but they are always fun and interesting. Emerson has a great reputation for being one of the best audiences in the district! Come and be part of a courteous, learning assembly!!

Student Helpers

Students become part of our helping community by becoming safety patrols, library helpers, or student council members. There's always a task to do and willing and able students to lend a helping hand!!

Remember, you're "At Home At Emerson Elementary School!"
