Elementary School opened in 1907 and has been serving the residents of the
South Side since that time. The school building was enlarged in 1957 in
response to increased enrollment. Over time, we have developed
relationships with community organizations such as Southside Settlement
House, Southeast Lions and the Kiwanis as well as corporate partners
including PriceWaterhouse Coopers, Schottensteins and McDonalds. We are
proud to serve our community and proud to be part of the Columbus Public
Schools. |
Beginning as a pilot project in Spring 1999, Reeb formed a
partnership with Sylvan Learning Centers to bring individual reading
instruction to our children while at school. This pilot project included
fourth graders at the school. In the 1999-2000 school year, we will be
able to provide assistance to 75 students in grades 1-5 who are
experiencing difficulties in reading. Each child who participates will
receive two hours of individual reading instruction every week. We are
excited about being able to bring this opportunity to our children and our
community. |
Reeb
Elementary School is proud to provide instruction to our students using a
Comprehensive Literature Approach. In essence, our staff uses quality
children's literature to teach the fundamentals of reading. Using this
approach, the teachers at Reeb will be able to harness your child's
natural creativity and curiosity to help guide the learning process. The
staff believes that all children learn differently and at different rates.
Using a Comprehensive Literature Approach builds on these differences in
each child's needs, skills and style of learning at Reeb Elementary
School. |
