MCCORMICK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

McCormick Elementary is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Blue Valley school district, located in Olsburg, KS with about 111 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 4th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 9 teachers, McCormick Elementary has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

McCormick Elementary, located in the small community of Olsburg, Kansas, is a key component of the Blue Valley Unified School District 384. Serving the local rural population, the school is dedicated to providing a foundational education in a close-knit, supportive environment. By leveraging its position within a smaller district, McCormick Elementary focuses on personalized attention for its students, fostering a strong sense of community and academic development in the early formative years.

As part of the USD 384 system, the school works in coordination with the broader district goals to ensure that students are prepared for their transition into secondary education. The school's connection to the district website (www.usd384.org) serves as a primary resource for families, providing information on academic programs, district policies, and community involvement opportunities. Through this collaborative approach, McCormick Elementary remains committed to maintaining high standards of learning while nurturing the unique character and needs of students in the Olsburg area.
