Arcola Elementary School opened its doors again in August 2007. The original "Arcola Elementary" was opened in the 1950's and closed in the 1980's. Even though, the "new" Arcola is twice the size of the original building with state of the art technology and a diverse student population of over 500 students, the neighborhood is just glad to have their beloved neighborhood school open again.
Our school has a mission statement that helps guide what we do everyday. Our mission statement is:
We are Arcola!
Nothing but the best will do.
Together we will:
Aim High
Respect
Communicate
Open our Minds and Hearts
Listen and Learn
Achieve
We are Arcola!
