Towne Acres Elementary School is a K–5 public school in Johnson City, Tennessee, operated by Johnson City Schools. Established in 1966, the campus serves the Larkspur Drive area and emphasizes a steady, standards-aligned approach to literacy, mathematics, science, and social studies. Students also rotate through art, music, physical education, and library media, with technology used to support research and publishing across grades. Teachers collaborate in professional learning communities, using assessment data and targeted interventions to guide instruction. The school communicates consistently with families through district tools, newsletters, and an events calendar. Towne Acres maintains age-appropriate safety procedures for arrival, dismissal, and visitors. Extracurricular options vary by year and may include STEM and coding opportunities connected to classroom projects. The program’s goal is straightforward: provide a reliable elementary foundation while encouraging curiosity, responsibility, and civic habits that prepare students for Johnson City’s middle-grade pathways. Facilities include playgrounds and a modern library.
