Mt. Everest Climbers

The fathers of two of our Hemingway families are currently climbing Mt. Everest and are hoping to reach the summit next week. Christian & Gabriela Whitaker's dad, Peter, and Ella and Gil Viestur's dad, Ed, are both members of the expedition. James Whitaker, the first American to stand on top of Mt. Everest is Peter Whitaker's uncle. 
We wish them luck on their great adventure!

hemGreetings, and welcome to Ernest Hemingway Elementary School. Our school is located in the beautiful Wood River Valley, just a mile from the base of the world famous Sun Valley ski area in Ketchum, Idaho.

Hemingway Elementary is a K-5 school and serves a student population of approximately 400 students.  We also offer preschool and day care operated by the YMCA in a building adjacent to our campus.  Our staff consists of a professional learning community of 35 highly qualified teachers, supported by 10 skilled paraprofessionals and a very active community of parent volunteers.

Hemingway prides itself on providing a well-rounded education to allhem students, while continuing to meet our annual yearly progress goals for all demographic groups.  In addition to our outstanding academic programs, all of our students participate in Art, Music, Physical Education, and Computers and Technology training taught by specialists in those areas.  Our Special Services, Speech and Language, and Gifted and Talented programs provide services for students with special needs.  We also offer our students the opportunity to participate in Choir, Strings Orchestra, and a Ski program for both Alpine and Nordic skiing.

Hemingway DisplayHemingway offers several unique opportunities, one of which is our Dual Immersion program.  This is a K-5 program that students enter in Kindergarten.  Classes are comprised of half native English speakers and half native Spanish speakers.  Throughout their elementary years, they are taught the grade level curriculum half the time in Spanish and half the time in English.  Hemingway also offers its own daily TV morning news show which is produced by our fifth graders.

I hope you enjoy your tour of our school.  At Ernest Hemingway Elementary School, students live our motto:  "We show respect for ourselves and others."
