Principal's Message

Dear Lilja Families,

Welcome to Lilja Elementary School, where we nurture a community of passionate learners and future leaders!

Our mission at Lilja is to create a supportive, inclusive environment that inspires everyone to be lifelong learners, reach their full potential, and become respectful, empowered citizens. We achieve this through our commitment to academic excellence, social-emotional growth, and our core values.

At Lilja, we believe that every child brings a unique perspective and set of experiences that enrich our school community. Our dedicated educators provide a well-balanced curriculum centered on the common core state standards, ensuring that every student receives instruction and support tailored to their individual needs. Through hands-on learning, interest-based projects, and innovative teaching methods, we engage our students and ignite their natural curiosity.

We recognize that social-emotional learning is foundational to our commitment to supporting the "whole child." Our Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) framework helps us create a positive school climate where every child feels valued and supported. We celebrate as our students develop into confident, independent citizens who embody our core values.

Our school culture is defined by close partnerships between educators, students, and families. We blend academic challenges with the joy of experiential learning, fostering cooperation and teamwork. Together, we're creating an environment where every Lilja Lion can roar with pride!

We are thrilled to partner with you in your child's educational journey. If you have any questions or need support, please don't hesitate to reach out. Our doors are always open to you.

Best,

Dr. Shelby Marscher, Principal
