Kingsford Elementary School's work is rooted in the philosophy that all students, regardless of background, can learn and achieve their full potential, with the proper resources and support. To provide this support, the school employs creative teaching techniques in the classroom and encourages parent involvement. Kingsford's approach also emphasizes students' social, emotional, and physical health.
In 2004, Kingsford implemented KidBiz3000, an innovative web-based reading and writing instruction program that integrates with the teacher's lesson plans and curriculum. The program allows teachers to assign reading and writing assignments tailored to each student, offering personalized coursework that can improve proficiency.
