Corley Elementary School

We honor America's fallen service members on Memorial Day. All GCPS schools and offices are closed today, Monday, May 25.

Today, Wednesday, May 20, is the last day of the 2025-26 school year!

We want to thank students, families, teachers, support staff, and our community for your hard work and dedication as we close out the school year. We hope you have a safe and enjoyable summer!

Summer is just around the corner, and we want to keep our students reading! The GCPS Book Mobile is a library on wheels that brings fantastic books straight to our local neighborhoods—and you can borrow them for FREE! 🚌💨

Field Days last week were a major success! Our students brought great energy and teamwork to every single event. 🏃‍♂️☀️

Thank you to all the Corley parents and families who came out to visit and cheer on their children! We loved seeing you there. 📣❤️

A special thank you goes to our Specials team, and a huge shoutout to Coach Hodnette for her hard work planning and coordinating everything. We appreciate you! 🏆👏

Celebrating Courage at Corley! 🏆

We are thrilled to look back at our April Patriots of the Month. The theme for the month was Courage, and these students truly stepped up to the plate. Whether it was tackling a difficult subject, making a new friend, or speaking up in class, they showed us that growth happens when you’re brave enough to try! 🌟

Help us give a huge shout-out to our April award winners! 👏👏👏👏

Monday was a special day at Corley as we celebrated our Kindergarten Graduation! 👨🏽‍🎓👩🏻‍🎓

It has been an incredible year of learning and discovery. Seeing how much these students have grown—both academically and socially—since the first day of school is what being a Patriot is all about. We are so proud of their hard work and can't wait to see them take on 1st grade next year.

Congratulations to our youngest scholars and their families on reaching this big milestone!

HATS OFF TO OUR GRADUATES! 🎓🎉

Yesterday’s 5th Grade Graduation at Berkmar High School was a beautiful celebration of student achievement and the incredible dedication of our Corley teachers. Our educators have worked tirelessly to prepare these students for the next big step in their journey!

A huge thank you to all the Patriot families who came out to support their scholars. Your involvement is what makes our school community so special.

Next stop: Middle School! Keep that Patriot pride shining bright! ❤️🤍💙

Last week, Corley Elementary had some very special visitors! The Berkmar High School Class of 2026 joined us for their Senior Walk, parading through our halls in their caps and gowns. 🎓✨

For our K-5 Patriots, this was more than just a parade, it was a look into their own futures. Our hallways were lined with cheering students who got to see exactly what "graduation" looks like up close.

A special shout-out to the graduates who started their journey right here in these very classrooms! Seeing you return as successful young adults inspires our students to keep dreaming big.

Congratulations, Berkmar Seniors! Once a Patriot, always a Patriot! ️❤️🤍💙

It’s National School Police Week! Thank you to our school resource officers and safety and security staff members for your commitment to the safety of student and all families, staff, and community members!

At Corley Elementary, we want to give a special thank you to Officer Barnett for everything he does to keep our school community safe and supported every single day. We are so glad to have you on our team! 👮🏾‍♂️
