Welcome to the Imperial Elementary School Website! We are pleased to have you learn about our school. Please use this resource as well as the Orange Unified School District website to remain informed about school events, activities, and opportunities to be a part of Imperial.
Our school-wide focus is on Reading Comprehension and Writing, with increased academic achievement for all students as our main goal. We are fortunate to have an enthusiastic staff of both credentialed and classified employees who work collaboratively to provide all of our students a terrific educational experience and who foster relationships to support their learning and development. Considerations for the needs of exceptional learners as well as students with visual impairments are integrated into our school program and contribute to a culture of diversity and support.
Our School-Wide Best Practices (SWBP) in Instruction and Learning are in the use of Step Up to Writing and Thinking Maps in every classroom at every grade level. Step Up to Writing provides systematic guidance for students to achieve proper organization and expression in writing. Thinking Maps are advanced graphic organizers that assist students in organizing complex ideas and relationships. In addition to our SWBPs, all students have access to online Reading Comprehension quizzes for thousands of book titles of every level through Reading Counts.
In addition to promoting academic excellence, we strive to encourage positive character development through the Pyramid of Success. We have also included an emphasis on Understanding and Preventing Bullying into our existing expectations and terminology for students.
Thanks,
Tim Biland
Principal
