"Colo-NESCO Elementary Learning Center is a beautiful and spacious facility that will host third through sixth grade students. In addition to a strong core academic, social and emotional programs, our school offers additional support services in the areas of Title 1, Special Education, and Extended Learning Programs. Along with the other early elementary buildings in our district, we have a strong emphasis on meeting the needs of all students through differentiated instruction and research-based practices.

We believe that through teaching, modeling, and practicing, C-N Elementary students will show good character by demonstrating safe, caring, respectful, and responsible behaviors. We also believe that by acknowledging and recognizing students when they demonstrate those core values, will promote continued positive behavior. Our students understand the Royal Expectations which include Respect, Organize yourself, You are responsible, Always be on time and ready, and Lead by example.

Every year brings new faces to Colo-NESCO Elementary and we continue to have excellent teachers and support staff, committed to using a collaborative approach to provide a safe and respectful learning environment that promotes and embraces growth for all learners. Our staff and students value the wonderful support of our families, the dedication of our volunteers, and the recourses provided by our community. We are very proud to be a part of the Colo-NESCO Community School District! Please stop in to meet our staff, volunteer in the classroom or just see how you can partner in your children's learning and growing." ~ Mickolyn E. Funnemark-Clapper, M.
