Tryon Elementary is in the top five among all elementary schools for the most significant increase in student proficiency. We also increased our school performance score – up five points. These are important achievements that make us very proud!

Tryon Elementary School is a place where students are encouraged to lead, grow and succeed. Serving students in pre-kindergarten through fifth grade, we provide a safe, welcoming environment focused on strong academics, leadership opportunities and personal development for every child.

Thanks to our partnership with Kintegra Health, we offer a telehealth clinic here at our school. Students, who are experiencing a minor illness or condition, can be seen by a medical provider virtually. This allows us to provide care for students without them having to leave school to go to the doctor.
