Mission:

The purpose of our school is to provide an educational program where all students learn to think and to apply thinking. Children should be provided with information and models that will help them act in a way that will make themselves and others proud. The only way to ensure academic, athletic, artistic and social success for all children is through cooperative efforts of the faculty, staff, parents, students and community.WE CAN HELP IMPROVE THE WORLD – ONE SCHOOL AT A TIME
