Four Houses, One Family

At E.B. Ellington, we use the house system; every student belongs to one of our four Houses—creating smaller communities within our school that build connection, pride, and purpose. The House System fosters teamwork, leadership, and a sense of belonging for all students. Through friendly competitions, service projects, and celebrations, students learn the value of collaboration, character, and school spirit.

The Houses encourage students to support one another, take pride in their accomplishments, and grow as leaders both inside and outside the classroom—helping every child feel known, valued, and inspired to succeed.

Charleston Stage Partnership

We are so grateful for our partnership with Charleston Stage. Actors provide our students with meaningful workshops and performance opportunities that help to ignite a love and appreciation for the arts beyond their related arts classes.

I absolutely love working here at E.B Ellington Elementary. Each day I wake up with a purpose and a goal to motivate and lead these students down a successful path. I’m from this community, so watching our children face challenges a still overcome them with so much growth and blossom each year is such a great experience. I love being that outlet person that they can rely on each day no matter if they’re my students or not. That really shows the level of trust and comfort that they have for me. Teaching has become my passion and I wouldn’t want to do it anywhere other than here at E.B Ellington. -Shalandria Middleton, 3rd grade teacher
