• More About Sweet-Montour Elementary

    "Small Community; BIG Learning!" 

    We Are Unique!
    Sweet-Montour Elementary School has small multi-age classrooms where students stay with the same teacher for at least 2 years. This makes it easier for the teacher to know their social, emotional, and academic needs. Each classroom is like a family. Students often support each other’s learning by being mentors to the younger children, and mentees to the older children.

    Technology Driven
    Each classroom in Sweet-Montour Elementary School is equipped with a SMARTboard, ELMO, Projector and multiple desktop computers for student use. Teachers use technology throughout subject areas and involve students in the use of technology in these lessons. We have 20 Microsoft Surfaces for student use as well. These were purchased in combination from District and PTO funds. Kindergarten through 5th grade use them multiple times each week.
