Find small class sizes and big opportunities at Emerson Elementary School. Ionia Public School District’s smallest elementary school is home to the Emerson Eagles, who soar from kindergarten through fifth grade and beyond. Located in the heart of the city of Ionia, this public elementary school offers competitive academic, extracurricular and special education opportunities. The Emerson Elementary School building was first constructed in 1923. Since then, the building has served as an elementary school, junior high school and Michigan Department of Corrections training facility. The building was renovated and reopened as an elementary school in 1996 and has inspired local students to achieve more ever since. Core curricular courses are supplemented by art, music, technology and physical education. Emerson Elementary teachers and staff are dedicated to helping students SOAR, which stands for the values of Safety, Ownership, Achievement and Respect. Compared to the other four elementary schools in the district, Emerson offers highly rated teaching staff and a low student-teacher ratio. Extracurricular events, field trips and hands-on learning activities promote individualized learning for all students and all learning styles.

We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
