Mission & Pledge

Mission

PERSONALIZATION: Each child receives personalized learning and is put at the center of learning. We provide an education that is tailored to students learning and motivational needs. We build relationships between teachers, students, the home, and school community.
 
ANALYSIS: We construct instructional focus and set goals for lessons based on data. Every student possesses a concept of the standard (goal) being aimed for & is aware of their current level. We use data as a tool for improving teaching and learning which is closing instructional gaps and/or extending learning. We use feedback as the key element of assessment for learning.
 
TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY SKILLS: We commit to creating student-centered problem-solving classrooms & to foster confidence and students growth mindset as 21st century learners. We develop the skills (collaboration, critical thinkers, creativity, & communication) needed to succeed in college, career, and life.
 
HEART: We lead with heart to build a community of learners with compassion, trust, empathy, understanding, forgiveness, self-reflection and love of life and learning.
