Welcome to Lamarque Elementary School, the Pride of North Port!

We are excited to welcome you to Lamarque. We take pride on being a student-focused and family-oriented school working together for the success of all!

Because children are at the heart of all we do, our talented staff is dedicated to providing a challenging curriculum that meets individual needs, supports student success and promotes academic excellence.

We place a strong emphasis on quality instruction; we value the richness of diversity, and we hold high academic and behavioral expectations for students and ourselves. We believe in active learning and stretching students’ imaginations through hands-on exploration and inquiry-based learning.

At Lamarque, we continually strive to be Respectful, Organized, Accepting, Responsible, and Safe (R.O.A.R.S.) These expectations we have for our students and ourselves are at the core of our community. As a PBIS Model School, we model, teach and celebrate positive behaviors that support the learning environment and promote a positive climate. Students can earn a quarterly ROARS award, shop at the ROAR Store, and earn fun socials when they are ROAR-ing at Lamarque!

Since we are a Title I school, we are fortunate to be able to provide individualized classroom support and offer a wide variety of family learning events. We have Instructional and Behavioral Support Teams designated for small groups and individualized learning. We want to ensure all students get what they need each day.

As a Cambridge International school, we can better accelerate learning for students already meeting grade level expectations in some or all of the content areas. By offering these challenges and enrichment activities, our students are better prepared for the careers of tomorrow. All students are taught the importance of the Cambridge learner attributes that put them on track for middle and high school AICE courses.

We are so excited to have you join us at Lamarque!

Bursting with Lion Pride,

Mrs. Forbus.
