About Us
Sycamore Elementary School, founded as Claremont Grammar School in 1890, is home to approximately 380 students in grades kindergarten through six. Ninety-nine percent of our students reside within the boundaries of CUSD; however, a strong percentage of families are students who transfer from within the city. These families cite the unique nature of our multi-age, constructivist-based educational program as the reason for their decision.
Learning is student centered at Sycamore Elementary School. Respect for each child as a learner is the foundation of our instructional activities and curricular decisions. Within our multi-age environment, leadership and collaboration is promoted. We encourage students to solve problems in a variety of ways, to influence and reflect upon their learning, and to apply their learning to real-world scenarios. At Sycamore, we intend to respond to the unique needs of each student by differentiating instruction and providing teaching strategies based upon the multiple intelligences.
