Mission Statement

A Shared Vision for the School We are Trying to Create 

In order to fulfill the fundamental purpose of helping all our students learn at high levels, we are dedicated in creating a school in which….

1.    Every teacher, parent and student is clear on the knowledge, skills, and dispositions students are expected to acquire in each course and unit of instruction
2.    The learning of each student is monitored on a timely basis.  When students experience difficulty, the school has structures in place to ensure they receive additional time and support for learning.
3.    There is a climate of high expectations for student success, and staff members communicate their high expectations to students, parents and one another.
4.    A collaborative culture ensures staff members work together interdependently to better meet the needs of their students and to analyse and improve their professional practice.
5.    Frequent reporting of student progress toward explicit learning outcomes helps staff members and parents take collective responsibility for student learning.
6.    Structures are created to promote widely dispersed leadership throughout the school.
7.    Staff members enjoy considerable professional  autonomy within specific and clearly understood parameters.
8.    Students and adults alike believe their efforts, improvements, and achievements will be recognized and celebrated.
9.    There is a safe and orderly environment
