Administration

   Welcome to the Paul L. Dunbar Elementary School’s Website. The
   goal of this website is to provide you with useful information about our
   school.

   Our school’s philosophy revolves around the healthy development of
   the whole child: socially, emotionally, and academically. The faculty and
   staff strive to create and maintain a productive and positive learning

   environment while maximizing teaching potential and student achievement.
   Teachers work hard to make learning interesting and challenging by actively
   engaging their students in the learning process.

   We make concerted efforts not to extinguish students’ inquisitiveness and
   curiosity. Instead, our students leave Paul L. Dunbar with a well-developed love
   of learning and an appreciation for the learning process that will remain with them
   throughout their lives.

   We are proud to have partnerships with our community and parents. As a
   result, students will feel that while attending school they are an integral part of
   the community and will realize the value of community and shared leadership and
   decision making.

Karen Brown-Collier, Principal

"A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in,
or the kind of car I drove... but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child.”

—Forest E. Witcraft (1894-1967), teacher, scholar
