Principal's Message

Welcome to Donnelly Elementary!

Donnelly Elementary School is a special place. Nestled in the heart of Valley County, Donnelly Elementary serves approximately 140 students, k through 5. We pride ourselves on small class sizes, individual attention and a family like atmosphere.

We have an exceptionally committed and professional staff at Donnelly Elementary School. A wide variety of programs are offered for our children. A school-wide reading program provides differentiated instruction for students in grades K – 5. The reading team includes: classroom teachers, a reading specialist and trained para-professionals. We also have scheduled intervention times to help students be challenged in Math and Language Arts. We build strong incentives for our children and believe in a "Work hard, Play hard" atmosphere. We have monthly reading parties which are a must see for parents and community members. We invite you to experience Donnelly Elementary School, we know you'll love it!

Please call the school at (208)325-4433 to volunteer to help at our school, or if you would like to help with our Parent/Teacher Organization (PTO).
