Welcome to Clearspring Elementary School
We take great pride in our student diversity and achievement, staff impact and dynamic programming in all areas of the building.
Our School Vision
Clearspring Elementary School is dedicated to working for and with students by providing inclusive, engaging, and memorable experiences to create a sense of belonging for all students and to grow as valuable members of their communities.
Clearspring Elementary School is located in Damascus, Maryland, a suburb of Washington, D.C. Clearspring serves approximately 540 students from Pre-Kindergarten to fifth grade and is part of the Damascus Cluster. We are a regional site for the Learning Center K-5 as well as the Center for Enriched Studies at grades four and five.
Our staff is dedicated to meeting the needs of all students in order to meet the rigorous standards of a quality education in Montgomery County Public Schools. Our teachers collaborate weekly to plan for differentiated instruction. We meet monthly in grade level teaching and learning conferences to analyze student data and plan for additional small group instruction that includes reteaching and acceleration strategies. Our para-professionals work diligently with teachers to strengthen the academic skills of our students.
We have a very involved PTA, https://clearspringpta.com/ and you are encouraged to join and be involved in your child’s education. We are looking forward to working with you and having a great year at Clearspring!
