Keeping students engaged from a young age can be challenging, but the programs at Cherry Creek Elementary do just that. Routine field trips to the zoo and Greenfield Village complement classroom instruction and helps each student realize their full potential.
From second to fifth grade, students can expect a well-rounded education in core academic subjects, art, music and gym. Older students in the area can inspire young learners through Teacher Academy, which allows Lowell High School students to volunteer as teaching assistants at Cherry Creek Elementary. Other notable programs include mental health awareness events, Girls on the Run and the annual Peace Walk.
The local public elementary school is named after the nearby Cherry Creek, which eventually joins Lee Creek and flows into the Grand River. Nearby Creekside Park and the Flat River display some of the natural beauty of Kent County right in the city of Lowell. A welcoming and supportive community helps promote lifelong learning for Cherry Creek Elementary students.
