Thank you for your interest in Rucker Elementary School and welcome to our school website. Make sure you follow us on Facebook and Twitter as well to learn more about our students and our school. We hope our website conveys the essence of our wonderful learning environment fostered by our dedicated teachers and talented students. Together, with parental support, we make Rucker a unique and special place for all children.

Rucker prides itself on being the best place for student learning and empowerment.  We value all of our students and are committed to helping them develop the foundation they will need to be successful and caring adults. Our number one goal, aside from safety, is student learning. For over 60 years, Rucker ES has helped to educate thousands of students for college and career success. We know there are plenty of schools, but at Rucker we are committed to developing the whole child. We believe that social-emotional learning is just as important as academics.

We encourage you to e-mail or call us if you would like to know more about Rucker. Let us know if you are interested in visiting our beautiful campus and meeting our teachers and students. Then, you can see firsthand, what a great place Rucker is for all students. We welcome the opportunity to meet you in person and help you get to know Rucker better.
For the 2022-23 school year, we will offer Dual Language (English & Spanish) in PK through second grade!  We accept 3 year olds into our program and also have Head Start resources.
