North Park Elementary is a proud part of Weber School District and provides a high-quality PreK-6 educational program. The school provides an extended day kindergarten program, a preschool program, and two functional life skill classes to support unique learning needs. The new facility opened its doors in August 2014 and is located on the north end of the city of Roy. The original North Park Elementary was constructed in 1959 and was located just south of the current school location. Designed with many windows, the new building is bright and appealing to students and staff. The building has incredible views of the majestic mountains of the Wasatch Front to the east and breathtaking views of the Great Salt Lake to the west. Located on the spacious outdoor area of the school are several play structures as well as an All-Abilities Playground provided through the generous support of the Weber School Foundation. North Park Elementary is a part of a community development that includes the Southwest Branch of the Weber County Library System and a spacious new city park area.
North Park has approximately 560 students enrolled in the school. The staff of 65 include teachers, aides/paraprofessionals, secretaries, cooks, and custodians, along with a school counselor, media specialist, reading specialist, EL teacher, school nurse, speech/language pathologist, and many other support personnel. North Park also enjoys additional support from the Community Council, North Park PTA, community business partners, and many local volunteers. The school mascot is the tiger and the school colors are orange and black.
Within the walls of this beautiful building, the important work of educating the whole child takes place every day. The school mission is to guide all students in developing their own self-confidence through high levels of academic, social, and emotional learning in order to ensure whole community success. Students have the opportunity to participate in academic rigor in all core areas of the curriculum. The school is committed to staying current on technology and using it to enhance, support, and expand the educational experiences of students. Additional opportunities to challenge students include Math/Science Olympiad, Iron Kid, STEM Fair, Future Problem Solvers, and various writing and visual art contests.
