Armstrong Elementary opened for the 1969-1970 school year and is located in Conroe, Texas. Mr. Albert Moorhead thought the new round school should be named after the astronaut, Neil A. Armstrong, the first person to walk on the moon, after he made the historic footstep on the moon on July 20, 1969.

Our mission is to grow all learners academically, socially, and emotionally in a safe and supportive environment.

At Armstrong we equip and empower every student to reach their highest potential in life—academically, socially, and emotionally. 

At Armstrong Elementary, our Astros shine bright by following our Guidelines for Success every day — being Responsible, Respectful, Positive, Kind, and demonstrating a Growth Mindset. These core values guide how we learn, interact, and grow together as a school community.

• Responsible – Astros take ownership of their learning and actions. They come prepared, make good choices, and follow through on their commitments.

• Respectful – Astros show respect to themselves, others, and their environment. They listen, follow directions, and use words that uplift and include everyone.

• Positive – Astros approach challenges with a can-do attitude. They encourage one another and look for the good in every situation.
