About Norwood Elementary
The original Norwood Elementary opened in 1968 and was a K-5 building housing about 300 students. In 1996 the building changed to a prek-2nd grade building. Our beautiful new facility opened as the only prek-5th grade building in the district in the fall of 2006. The present building has three sections of prek and four sections each of grades K-5. The new facility provides for a separate cafetorium, gym, and large media center.
