The Board of Education is committed to educational programs that
strive to develop concerned individuals who are caring, confident,
articulate, open-minded, and flexible. The Board believes that
students should be able to work cooperatively with peers, staff, and
community members in a nurturing environment that respects
individual differences.
In order to prepare district students for the future, the Board
encourages the development of curricula designed to teach the skills
of computing, problem-solving, creativity, analysis, syntheses,
critical thinking, and communication. Students must also become
aware of emerging global manner. Ultimately, students must assume
responsibility for their own learning, in order to become
self-directed, lifelong learners. The district school should
stimulate and expand a continual learning process, and cultivate an
understanding and appreciation of the rights and responsibilities of
American citizens, which will enable students to function
effectively as independent individuals in a democratic society.
The educational program will provide each child with the
fundamental academic skills and basic knowledge required for his/her
maximum educational development, the opportunity for each child to
develop his/her interests and abilities to the fullest extent
according to his/her individual potential and special services to
promote the physical, mental, and emotional development of each
child. Extracurricular activities will be offered when possible to
enhance the academic program.
the Board encourages parents and teachers to offer their
expertise in helping to develop a school environment that is
academically challenging, psychologically satisfying and socially
fulfilling for students at all levels. The objectives of an
educational program are best realized when mutual understanding,
cooperation, and effective communications exist among the home,
community, and school.
