At Augusta Circle Elementary, our greatest advantage isn’t a program, a building, or a resource; hands down, it’s our people. We are a school deeply rooted in the Augusta Road community, where families don’t just attend ACE but they become part of it. Generations of families return, with former ACE Eagles now bringing their own children through our doors. That sense of belonging creates something special: a school community that knows where it came from, cares deeply about where it is going, and takes pride in growing together. At the heart of it all is that Augusta Circle’s greatest resource is our people. Our teachers, staff, families, and students bring energy, expertise, heart, and a genuine commitment to one another. We invest in people because we know that when our people thrive, our Eagles thrive.
“Augusta Circle is not just an elementary school, it is truly the heart of our neighborhood. Students are loved, supported and enriched through a community of staff, educators, parents and community members who help our children thrive. The pride that comes from carrying on the century old tradition of excellence is evident in the dedication of the teachers, smiles of the parents and laughter of the children.”

“What sets Augusta Circle apart is that it functions as both a neighborhood school and a community center focused on nurturing young minds from kindergarten into adolescence. In addition to the excellent academic rigor, ACE helps students with personal growth in all aspects of life: socially, emotionally, physically, and creatively.”
