Additionally, Shrevewood students demonstrated a 3% growth in passing the Standards of Learning (SOL) assessments from the previous year. These achievements are a testament to the dedication of our students, teachers, and staff, as well as the effectiveness of our instructional strategies.

Showcasing Learning and Making Global Connections

We celebrate that 100% of our students have actively participated in Portrait of a Graduate (POG) Presentations of Learning (POLs) for the past two years, reflecting our commitment to fostering engaged and high-achieving learners. Our diverse range of high-achieving programs further contribute to our students' success, ensuring they are well-prepared for future challenges.

Teachers and students actively participate in the Global Classroom Project, connecting students with other schools around the world and incorporating skills that help prepare students for a sustainable future. 

Student Programs

Our school offers a variety of programs that foster student engagement, leadership, collaboration, and community. With 40% of students in grades 4-6 participating in clubs and activities, there’s something for everyone! Programs include the Tech Squad, Green Team, and Book Crew. All focus on developing skills and teamwork. For 6th graders, the News Crew, Student Council Association (SCA), and school newspaper provide outlets for creativity. Additionally, the Welcome Team encourages leadership across all grades. These programs enrich students' experiences and promote collaboration throughout our school community.

Advanced Academics (Access and Opportunity)

Our school prioritizes advanced academics by offering local Level IV programming that ensures all students have access to a rigorous curriculum. We integrate advanced academic principles across all classes, providing every learner with the opportunity to engage with challenging material. This inclusive approach not only fosters critical thinking and problem-solving skills but also prepares students for future academic success. Using this approach , Shrevewood experienced a 7% increase in students accessing Advanced Math curriculum in grades 5 and 6.

Staff Recognition

At Shrevewood Elementary, we value our staff and recognize their contributions through various initiatives. The Going the Extra Mile Award and Hoot Highlights celebrate outstanding achievements by our staff. Each week, a class is featured in the newsletter to highlight their accomplishments and celebrate their successes. In addition, administrators participate in a monthly Walk It Like I Talk It lesson in a lucky chosen teacher’s classroom. This allows the administrator to continue utilizing their teaching practices and provides the teacher with a much deserved break from the classroom while the administrator is teaching the class.

Community partnerships

At Shrevewood, we value our community partnerships and see them as a cornerstone of our school's success. We collaborate with local businesses, organizations, and community members to provide enriching experiences for our students. The school's partnership with FCPS’ Davis Career Center gives students valuable exposure to career readiness activities, where older students mentor younger students and assist with daily school functions. 

Engagement and Inclusivity:

Shrevewood Elementary fosters a welcoming and inclusive school culture that emphasizes community. According to the Family Engagement Survey, 96% of families reported feeling welcomed and included at Shrevewood, regardless of their background or culture. Our dedication to diversity is also reflected in school-wide activities that celebrate various backgrounds. Examples include International Night, where classrooms highlight and celebrate the nationalities of our student body and Celebration of Learning Night, which highlights presentations of learning showcasing student growth. The school's strong sense of community and positive climate contribute to a thriving educational experience for all students. 

Facilities and Resources

Shrevewood Elementary has been thriving with the support of a dedicated PTA. The school has undergone significant upgrades to its facilities and resources, both indoors and out. Students now enjoy outdoor learning spaces, including a classroom-style courtyard and Lego walls. Flexible seating options in classrooms provide a comfortable and engaging learning environment. The playground has also received a major makeover, featuring a brand-new pre-K playground and blacktop games. These enhancements offer students a variety of activities and encourage physical and collaborative play during recess.
