A Closer Look at Life at Elvel
-
Where discipline meets purpose.
Clear expectations help everyone — students, teachers, and families alike. Our policies are designed to create a school environment where learning is prioritized, discipline is consistent, and communication flows with respect and purpose.
When rules are clear, students rise — not just in academics, but in character. Our policies are more than guidelines. They are habits that shape leaders — from how we dress and speak to how we learn, serve, and grow. Rooted in respect, integrity, and responsibility, these standards define life at Elvel and reflect our commitment to forming world-class Hondurans.We don’t expect perfection. We expect partnership — families and school moving in the same direction.

Structure you can count on.
At Elvel School, our calendar is more than a schedule — it’s a reflection of our culture: structured, purposeful, and committed to excellence.
The public calendar offers a year-at-a-glance view, including start and end dates, holidays, and signature events that define life at Elvel.
Families enrolled at Elvel have access to our full academic calendar in the Family Portal, which includes detailed exam schedules, report card release dates, and event-specific logistics.

Worn with purpose. Rooted in pride.
At Elvel School, the uniform is more than attire — it is a daily act of belonging.
We believe that true education begins with a mindset of equality, discipline, and shared identity. When students dress alike, they walk into the classroom on equal ground. The distractions of fashion, status, or trend disappear. What remains is character, effort, and potential.
Uniforms help eliminate social divisions. They foster unity. They train the eye — and the heart — to focus on what matters: how we think, how we treat others, how we lead.
To wear the Elvel uniform is to carry the values of this institution — quietly, confidently, and with pride. It says: “I’m here to learn. I’m part of something bigger than myself.”
Daily Uniform (Grades 1–11)
White polo shirt with the Elvel crest — clean, tucked in, and pressed
Forest green pants (boys and girls) or plaid skirts (girls)
Black leather dress shoes, polished
Mid-calf socks: white (girls), gray (boys)
Black belt: mandatory for all boys wearing pants
