Mission:

The Board and staff of the District believe that all students can learn, and they accept the responsibility of ensuring that each student masters the basic and essential skills necessary for success at each grade and of providing instructional experiences to motivate and assist students toward this goal.

The Board and administrators of the District believe the primary purposes of the schools are academic teaching and learning and they pledge to organize and manage the District and its schools in a manner that values teaching and learning above other experiences provided by the schools.

Because it believes that all students can learn and that the primary purposes of schools are teaching and learning the board charges the superintendent to involve all District staff in an ongoing process of planning and improvement to ensure that characteristics of effective schools are observable on all campuses.
