This school's name was once pronounced Tsuzuriko (i.e. with the "proper" pronunciation of the character 綴). This pronunciation is fossilized in places like the school's email address and homepage. Over time the pronunciation of "ri" transformed into "re," giving the school the name it has today (Tsuzureko).

The Tsuzureko Elementary School building, built in 1966, is the oldest active school building of all schools in Kitaakita City.

School Song

綴子小学校校歌
三沢　一郎　作詞
達子　勝蔵　作曲

一、

流れもつきぬ　米白の

たゆまぬ水の　強さもて

ここに建設（きず）きし　われらの郷土（さと）は

国史（ふみ）にもしるし　この肉入籠（ししりこ）

二、

雲井に仰ぐ　森吉の

気高き山の　心もて

朝な夕なに　修むるわれら

たのしわれらの　学び舎たのし
