Program Overview

Overview

The modernized Norman-Sims Elementary School was officially re-named by the Board of Trustees and opened in December of 2020. The school features flexible learning spaces, natural light, outdoor classrooms, and new media technology. A modernized school allows students to be active learners in 21st-century learning spaces as they collaborate, use technology, and move within the classroom. The community chose Trailblazers as our mascot. The Trailblazers will help set a standard to ensure inspiration, creativity, and motivation for students to accomplish their wildest dreams and become their own Trailblazer! Norman-Sims Elementary fosters a cooperative environment to enhance the academic, social, and emotional moral growth of students. Norman-Sims is part of the LBJ and Northeast Early College High School families of schools which support preparation for college-level courses beginning in 9th grade - allowing students to graduate from high school with a diploma and an associate degree.
