Way to go … we did it!
Catawba Heights Elementary met its academic growth expectations for the 2025-2026 year and we improved our science proficiency by nearly 20 points. This means we are moving in the right direction toward higher academic achievement!
Catawba Heights Elementary School
Catawba Heights Elementary is a neighborhood school with deep community roots. With small class sizes and strong partnerships with local churches and organizations, we create a supportive learning environment where students thrive.
Providing care for students at school
Thanks to our partnership with Kintegra Health, we offer a telehealth clinic here at our school. Students, who are experiencing a minor illness or condition, can be seen by a medical provider virtually. This allows us to provide care for students without them having to leave school to go to the doctor.
