About Us

Welcome to Kerr!

At Kerr Elementary, we are a learning community that welcomes challenges and works hard to grow and succeed. We take risks, think creatively, and adapt to meet the needs of our ever-changing world. As a school family, we support one another, celebrate our unique strengths, and serve our community.

We believe that student success is a shared responsibility between home and school. As your child’s first and most important teacher, your involvement plays a vital role in helping them reach their full potential. We encourage you to stay actively involved by attending Parent-Teacher Conferences, PTA meetings, and school assemblies. 

Our mission is to provide a safe, inclusive, and nurturing environment where every child is empowered to learn, grow, and succeed. We are committed to this mission through strong collaboration, high expectations, and open communication with students, families, staff, and the wider community.

Strong Community Partnerships

We’re so grateful for our amazing community partners who help our school shine! QuikTrip generously provides resources all year long, while Church on the Move Outreach leads the way with our exciting 'Love Day' summer carnival and blesses our students with meaningful academic supports and generous seasonal contributions.  Kerr has the Family/Children's Center housed at our site for families who are struggling with a variety of issues. Lastly, we have the Champions Before and After School program that provides supervision for families who need before and after-school Kerr student care.

Student Excellence

School attendance is critical to student success, and our team works hard to make students feel valued every day. We have implemented several creative approaches to get them excited throughout the year, including mid-semester pizza parties , Quik trip gift cards,  surprise gifts and end-of-year field trips for students who meet their attendance goals and academic goals.
