Located in the heart of Knoxville, Tennessee, Inskip Elementary is a pre-K through fifth-grade school serving a little over 500 students. Inskip Elementary partners with nearby Central High School to allow fifth-grade students to interact with high-school-aged peer mentors.
Teachers describe the school as a diverse environment where there are innovative learning opportunities during the school day as well as after school. The student body is organized into five houses. The houses have Latin names representing traits of lions called strength, bravery, loyalty, pride and patience. The house structure gives students a sense of belonging and shared responsibility as they can earn points and rewards for their houses.
Inskip Elementary offers STEM resources, education in the arts and several clubs for second through fifth graders that meet on Thursday morning. Clubs cover interests like basketball, board games, robots, coloring, puzzles, books and crafts.
Teachers at Inskip work hard to provide hands-on learning opportunities. Students participate in farm day, a tournament of books, gardening, a carnival, field day, STEM night and a science fair. After completing elementary school at Inskip, most students go on to attend Gresham Middle School.
