About Us

Welcome to Adams Elementary School!

Adams Elementary School is located in Coon Rapids and is tucked into a wooded neighborhood. Our school campus is a designated School Forest by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, and our partnership with the Springbrook Nature Center provides students with unique outdoor learning experiences. 

Adams is one of two schools in the Anoka-Hennepin School District using solar power to supply energy, presenting more unique learning opportunities for our students.
