Welcome to Schaeffer Elementary, home of the Schaeffer Gators! It is my sincere pleasure to be part of the school’s team. As a team (school, students, families, and community), our goal is to foster the development of the whole child. The dedicated faculty and staff work diligently to meet the needs of each individual student in the areas of academics as well as their social and emotional development. As a school, we work together to teach and model our four Gator Goals that include:

 
Schaeffer sits within a wonderful community, and we encourage family members to volunteer in classrooms, attend school events, and get involved in the PTO activities that are planned and organized for the students.

As a leader, I strongly believe in teamwork and collaboration. Building a positive environment for all of our students while keeping them safe is one of my personal goals. I am excited to work alongside the Schaeffer teachers, families, and community to make that happen.

We are going to have a great school year!

Elizabeth Edwards,
Schaeffer Principal
