  • Mission

    At Birney Elementary School, academic success is achieved by using research based instructional practices. We work to support and engage students, families and the community while providing an environment that fosters academic success, safety, social growth, and collaboration.

    About Us

    EVERYONE HAS SOMETHING TO OFFER! Schools function best when they belong to communities of interested, involved individuals and families. You can bring a lot to Birney in the form of your energy, time, and ideas. Here are some ways to use your skills and resources to help our school! All volunteers must complete a volunteer form, and government-issued photo Identification, and return to the school secretary. Our vision at Birney is to be a culturally responsive school creating life-long learners. We strive to consistently give our students the opportunity to be their best by surrounding them with positive, caring, and flexible adults. Our elementary school is the only k-5 school in our area to provide a Deaf and Hard of Hearing pre-k - 5 program. We have many opportunities for volunteers to engage in different activities with students that have diverse learning needs.
