Parkdale Elementary School is located at 80 Parkdale Avenue East Aurora, NY. Parkdale Elementary School is nestled on the eastern shore of Cayuga Lake, in the heart of the Finger Lakes region of New York State and currently educates Grades K through 2 for the Community of Aurora in Erie County.

There is a concentrated emphasis on Reading and Language Arts at Parkdale. Children are immersed in the use of language on a daily basis and there is a strong link between reading and writing. Children are taught the strategies to increase their success and independent skills in both areas. School wide activities, including author visits, enrichment projects and the Parkdale “Kids Mail” further contribute to developing constructive habits and attitudes. Parents are also encouraged to be actively involved in their children’s literacy.

Mathematics, Science, Health, and Social Studies are taught using a blended approach of hands-on activities and traditional pencil to paper tasks. Our Character Education program, with an emphasis on Respect, Responsibility, Honesty and Citizenship, directly supports academic and social growth. Ongoing training and curriculum development provide teachers with the tools and resources needed to address increasing academic standards and further foster creativity and exploration.
