Mission

The diverse learning community is committed to academic excellence and the success of every student.  The staff ensures that each student will build a foundation of knowledge and skills, will demonstrate the ability to think independently, creatively, and critically, develop mutual respect and individual self-worth by providing a challenging, safe, nurturing environment that is the shared responsibility of staff, students, families, and the community.

We Believe

  • Students are not standardized, they are unique in their needs, thought processes, and learning styles. 
  • Parental support is necessary for the students’ optimum success. 
  • The best learning process occurs when students and staff are motivated to strive for excellence. 
  • It is essential for each educator to demonstrate genuine concern and care for each student and show desire for each student to learn.
