The Norfolk Public Schools value the pursuit of academic excellence for each child at his/her level and strive to establish a love of learning. Our school is a child-centered place where children can succeed as individuals and can develop respect for themselves and others in a caring environment. The school and community are committed to equal opportunity for all students. We believe the development of a positive self-image is essential to their proper growth.

We encourage lifelong learning by expanding curiosity and providing opportunities for critical thinking and problem solving. Because life is a continuous process of learning, our mission is to keep all children toward the quest for life-long knowledge
