Elihu Beard Elementary

Elihu Beard Elementary sits in central Modesto, a working-class city in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley where agriculture, community, and a strong sense of local pride define everyday life. The school serves a neighborhood where many families have deep roots in the area, and while its academic scores fall in the lower third statewide, it's part of a district that's actively working to support its students. Families who are engaged and looking to be involved in their child's school community will find a place where that kind of hands-on participation can make a real difference.
