ABOUT US
Established in 1942, MacDowell Elementary School has served as the backbone of excellence in the community for decades.
Our mission is to provide an excellent education for our scholars, prepare them for college, and build upon a tradition of excellence at the MacDowell campus. Generations of families have attended MacDowell Elementary and have fond memories of their time as students.
At MacDowell, our team is dedicated to providing a world-class education to empower our scholars and help them make their dreams a reality. The importance of a college education is rapidly increasing in our 21st-century economy. As part of our enduring commitment to creating opportunities for our students, we offer a college prep curriculum and a clear path to college through our network of schools, Promise Schools. At the same time, we take a holistic approach to learning by supporting the unique interests of each child and helping our students develop individual excellence on the path toward achieving their goals.
