Milton Avenue Elementary School, which serves grades K-3, is located in a residential area toward the north end of the borough. Its property is bordered by trees on one side.
The school district emphasizes a strong arts-related curriculum, and as such, Milton Avenue often brings in experts to teach students vocal music, physical education, health and art.
Milton Avenue is home to the Preschool Readiness and Enrichment Program, which is intended to help three- and four-year-olds who experience delays in developing their learning, social/emotional or motor skills. It also offers special education classes for its elementary school children.
The school's principal is Marion McCarthy.
