Welcome to Saxe Gotha Elementary School, home of the Shining Stars. We pride ourselves on being the first steps of your child's educational journey. Our core value at SGES is "Family," and we build our community around this core value to provide a caring environment where your child can thrive and develop into independent learners ready for middle school and beyond.

At SGES, we have dedicated and passionate teachers whose instructional approaches are student-centered and help develop a love of learning in children. Our teachers focus on developing student leaders who set goals, track progress, and celebrate success. We are committed to seeing your child learn, grow, and excel!

We offer a variety of related arts and extracurricular activities, including music, art, physical education, and clubs. These programs are designed to help students explore their interests, develop new skills, and build lasting friendships. Our goal is to ensure that each child feels valued and encouraged to pursue their passions both inside and outside the classroom. 

“It takes a Village” at SGES. Family engagement and community events are the foundation of a positive community. We have multiple opportunities for parents, community members, and stakeholders to support our children. Whether it’s through mentoring, Parent Teacher Association (PTA), School Improvement Council (SIC), Literacy Nights, Awards Nights, or Field Studies, we find ways to bring our community together to support our Shining Stars. 

Thank you for entrusting us with your child's education. We look forward to partnering with you to make your child's time at Saxe Gotha Elementary School their first steps on their educational journey. Welcome to the SGES family!

“One Team, One Dream”
