Welcome to Otay Elementary School!

The Otay School community is committed to providing a safe, nurturing environment that creates high achieving, innovative thinkers who realize their potential and become self-confident, life-long learners. We are devoted to the success of all. Together we soar!

The Falcon Four:
Be Safe, Be Respectful, Be Responsible, and Be Kind.

At Otay, we promote a school-wide culture of reading through a balanced literacy approach across all content areas. Our goal is to foster a lifelong love of reading in our students!

Teachers collaborate biweekly while students get to attend Specialty classes. Every other week, all students get 2.5 hours of Art, Music and PE. Our full time music teacher also teaches orchestra and students in 3rd-6th grade have the opportunity to learn to play a strings instrument and work with teachers from San Diego Youth Symphony.

To further support students' emotional needs we have a Full Time School Counselor who meets with students and supports teachers in their classrooms.
