Where Lifelong Learners Excel
MISSION & PHILOSOPHY
The mission of Norco Elementary School is to create a safe, loving environment in which there are high levels of learning.
Norco Elementary School, nestled among oak and pine trees in the town of Norco, is truly a community school located in the heart of an industrial town. Originally established in 1929, the school's current site was built in 1961 and now services pre-kindergarten through fifth grade. In addition to providing students with strong academic skills, Norco Elementary School's goal is to encourage students to have strong character traits such as integrity, kindness, perseverance, generosity, empathy, etc. As a result, the school chooses three non-profit organizations to support each year.
