As a caring and committed learning community, we will empower all within our learning organization towards continuous learning, personal excellence and lifelong success.
We commit to creating a district with:
Engaged and successful students inspired and supported by caring and professional staff
A culture and environment where continuous learning and innovation is valued and honored
A partnership of excellence amongst the board, administration, staff, students, families and community.
Our core values (the drivers of our work) include excellence, inspiration, care, innovation and pride.
We have adopted four strategic directions that help focus our approaches for continuous improvement. They are:
Implement consistent classroom practices leading to increase college and career readiness
Leverage technology to support and extend the traditional classroom
Provide effective management of growth and resources to meet our future challenges
Develop community engagement and parent partnerships to prepare our students for life beyond their PK-12 education.
