Welcome to Akers Elementary School

Admiral Akers School is nestled within the Lemoore Naval Air Station and was built in 1963 to service the children of military families. The school acknowledges the importance of a student’s academic success and appreciates the importance of a student’s social and mental well-being. Teachers, administrators, and staff are all dedicated to providing a warm and challenging learning experience for the children.

The faculty and staff at Akers School believe that education is a cooperative effort among home, school, and community. Our major goal is to prepare students to become responsible citizens and productive members of society. We believe all children are capable of learning. Akers children will be provided with an environment that is safe, caring, friendly, and educationally inspiring. Our school climate will encourage openness, trust, self-esteem, self-motivation, respect for self and respect for others. It will help children achieve social, academic, and physical excellence and allow students to succeed within their limits. 

Admiral Akers School is located in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley on the Lemoore Naval Air Station near Lemoore, California. The school was built in 1963 to educate the children of military families. Akers is located half-way between San Francisco and Los Angeles and half-way between the Pacific Ocean and the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Surrounding Lemoore Naval Air Station are acres of agricultural land. The town of Lemoore (population 24,285) is seven miles from Akers School. Our school mascot is an eagle. When the school was founded, Admiral Akers, for whom the school is named, was the oldest active duty Navy pilot. He was called the Gray Eagle. Our school colors are red, black, and gray.
