     Fred Armon Toomer Elementary School, nestled in the historic Kirkwood neighborhood, is a terrific place for every student to learn and exceed expectations. Raising standards, enhancing curriculum and instruction, and improving learning environments is the commitment the faculty and staff makes to each student and parent. Everyone in the school community continues to work together, to educate Toomer’s students and obtain the status of a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence.
 
     Instruction is rigorous, engaging, student-centered, and standards-based. Making global connections, Toomer Elementary School's students are developing a second language in Mandarin Chinese and incorporating technology skills across the curriculum. Every child is guided to reach their potential, in a supportive and positive environment. Enthusiasm, confidence, and creativity is encouraged and cultivated in Toomer's "Cougars," to develop needed skills for a lifetime of success.
