Cornelia Elementary School is where students of all abilities come together to define excellence. First constructed in 1962, the elementary school building received a large addition in 1999 and continues to provide highly rated education and inspiration. As one of six elementary institutions in the Edina Public School District, Cornelia distinguishes itself as being the home of Edina’s developmental cognitive disabilities program and using the Second Step social-emotional learning curriculum.

Specialized classroom spaces, trained teachers and an accessible playground come together to help students achieve more. Cornelia Elementary goes beyond a typical special education program to promote personal growth and community wellbeing.
The Second Step social-emotional learning curriculum by the Committee for Children promotes holistic approaches for children of all abilities. It comes alongside Edina Public School District initiatives to improve student and staff learning in these key areas.

School will not provide proper information to parents. They will try to make all possible ways to send atleast few students toESL. So they don't loose their jobs
