Principal's Corner

O'Rourke Elementary School's teachers are always excited about learning. They participate in on-going professional development in order to provide all students with opportunities to reach their potential.

Teachers have been trained in the Alabama Math, Science, and Technology Initiative, and the Alabama Reading Initiative. In addition, all teachers have participated in Reading Renaissance training. In fact, O'Rourke Elementary School has met the criteria to receive recognition as a Reading Renaissance Model School.

At O'Rourke Elementary School we are proud of our community of parents, students, teachers, faculty, and partners. Together, we strive to provide a positive atmosphere conducive to learning not only academic skills, but also life-long skills that will make us better citizens capable of living and working together.
