Mission:

The educational community at Alta Murrieta Elementary School, believes that all children can learn. Our mission is to establish a learning environment where all children can succeed. Staff, parents, and community members must come together to provide the necessary support. Together, we will strive to instill in each student the skills necessary to meet life’s challenges with honesty, integrity, courage, and the desire for intellectual and personal excellence. At Alta Murrieta, children participate in programs that foster individual growth, academic progress, cultural literacy, and good citizenship. Striving for and maintaining excellence is an on-going process at Alta Elementary School. This is articulated through our school motto, “Acquire the Alta Attitude - Aspiring, Learning, Thinking and Achieving.”
