I'm interested in learning whether LiveCode is an appropriate tool
for introducing elementary school children to the field of computer
science.

LiveCode has been eagerly adopted in the educational market. I can't find the link, but Scotland's schools throughout the country have adopted LiveCode as the preferred method to teach basic programming skills.

On the RuvRev web site there are three write-ups of how LiveCode is being used in educational settings. While these aren't elementary schools, I think the same principles would apply to any age student:

The main web page with all these links and more is at:
