Neill Elementary

Neill Elementary On behalf of the Edward D. Neill Elementary School staff, we welcome you to our school page. It is a privilege to have your child at our school.

Our goal at Neill Elementary is to meet the needs of all learners. Welcome to Neill Elementary, where happy and supported staff make for happy and supported students. We love welcoming young people into our nurturing academic community, where they find joy in learning the basics while building positive relationships with peers. We have created a family-oriented community that draws out the best in

each child. Neill
offers:

A vibrant educational environment that celebrates children of all cultures and abilities
Annual special events and gatherings to honor students and bring our school family together
Classes and curriculum in which students see their culture, their experiences and themselves
A deep connection between home and school, where parents and teachers together provide support for students, inside and outside the classroom. At Neill, we make it a point to know every student and their family. Once families experience the special atmosphere here, they love it and stay. (Some of today’s parents attended Neill themselves!) Our active PTA sponsors an annual bingo night, dance and carnival, among other events. Along with the core curriculum, we help young people learn to self-regulate and center themselves so they can focus on school – skills that will serve them well through high school and after.

We extend our sincerest appreciation and gratitude to our amazing leaders, Principal Lindeman and Ms. James, as they wrapped up their last school day with students at Neill.
Principal Lindeman will take on a new leadership role at SEA Elementary, and Ms. James will return to Zachary Lane as the principal. Their commitment to building relationships, using data to inform decisions, and their enthusiasm for their work are visible daily. SEA and Zachary Lane are so very fortunate to have them as their new leaders ❤️ Once A Roadrunner, Always A Roadrunner!

The Neill 5th grade class of 2026 was recognized today with festivities alongside family and friends, acknowledging their numerous accomplishments. These exceptional students excel not only academically but also participate in various extracurricular activities such as all- district choir, orchestra, and band. Furthermore, they serve as 5th grade buddies to younger students, safety patrols, cafeteria helpers, and more. This group of students is sure to achieve great success in the future! The celebration, made possible by the PTO, featured pizza from Crystal Pizza Man, ice cream from Jilly Beans, personalized t-shirts, and a remarkable presentation, all of which contributed to honoring these students as they receive best wishes for their upcoming journey to middle school ❤️
