Welcome to Northeast
Northeast Elementary has been part of the Douglas County community since 1966. Generations of students have walked through our doors, with some returning years later as Northeast parents and educators. That legacy continues today through a welcoming school community where students are known, supported and encouraged to grow into their best selves.
