Some of the earliest educational moments in Belding, Michigan, occur at Ellis Elementary. Since its doors opened in 1900, Ellis Elementary School has prepared young learners for a bright future in the Belding Area School District. The school’s mission is to “provide a community where all children can learn and become responsible citizens.” Teachers, parents, students and community members work together to reach this goal.
Conveniently located on Ellis Street, just north of the Flat River, the Ellis Elementary curriculum focuses on writing, reading, math and social-emotional learning. Students also explore science, art, music and other topics as they prepare to move on to third grade in Woodview Elementary School. Outdoor playtime, field trips and summer celebrations are also important components of holistic learning and growth at Ellis Elementary.
Parents are encouraged to support the school community by providing snacks, volunteering for events and celebrating the highly rated teachers. Thanks to dedicated community support, teachers at Ellis Elementary can provide a quality educational environment for competitively sized classes.

Mrs.Jackson taking over as principal was the best thing to happen to this school. She's amazing with the kids, communicates with parents and I have never been made to feel as though they just don't have time to deal with concerns I may have for my son.

Education wise I feel the school needs to step it up a notch... also feel like there should be more adult supervision during recess as my son has had roughly 12 different injures this school year with half of those resulting in ER visits!!!
