Welcome to New Market Elementary! We begin this school year with 754 students. Our school is located approximately eight miles from Frederick, Maryland. It is a historic town that draws many visitors annually to the quaint antique shops located in the heart of our town.

Our school is well known for the comfortable atmosphere that values education and builds student self-confidence, student achievement and community trust. The PTA and school community work collaboratively to ensure that our children are growing to be productive, caring and critical-thinking young adults ready for the future.

We take pride in our many accomplishments, including the 2010 Maryland State and National Blue Ribbon School award. We value educating the whole child by providing many opportunities for students to exemplify outstanding character traits, give back to the community and lead a healthy lifestyle. The total community working together makes today's dreams -- tomorrow's reality!
