Who We Are
High expectations.
High achievement for all.
No excuses.
Welcome to Centerview Elementary School in Blaine! We are one of three elementary schools serving Spring Lake Park Schools' students in grades preK-4.
Newly Constructed Facility
Centerview Elementary School is the district’s newest school and is currently under construction, and will be ready for students and staff by fall 2018.
Innovative and Personalized Learning
Each student at Centerview Elementary School is known by name, strength, interest and need, leading to personalized student work and learning experiences.
Focus on Literacy
All elementary students in Spring Lake Park Schools spend 120 minutes each day on reading instruction with 60 minutes in smaller groups focused on specific student needs.
STEM and Real-world Learning
We continue to expand our STEM learning for each student in Spring Lake Park Schools. We are redesigning traditional learning experiences and transforming our classrooms to help our students become creators, designers, inventors, thinkers and leaders.
Career and College Readiness and 12 x 12
We are collectively committed to designing engaging learning experiences that lead to each student earning 12 college credits by the end of 12th grade.
Low Class Sizes
One of our top priorities is to maintain low class sizes. Our class sizes at elementary grade levels are among the lowest in the metro area and among neighboring districts.

The best part of my day is when the doors open in the morning and students come running in! It's great to see that kids are so excited to be here each day and that they want to get to their class as quick as they can!
