Kirkman Park Elementary

GCS Grab-and-Go Site

Kirkman Park is one of two Spanish Immersion language programs offered in Guilford County Schools. Students participating in the Spanish Immersion Program learn the North Carolina standard course of study entirely in Spanish.

Kirkman Park's small class sizes give the staff the opportunity to offer individualized and personalized instruction. The school's proximity to High Point University affords the staff the ability to further their professional education and also gives Kirkman Park's students the opportunity to engage with many of the High Point University students.

With a firm belief that character education should be taught as earnestly as a core curriculum, we do more than just teach reading, mathematics, and science lessons. We lay the foundation for all academic and life skills our students will need.
