Our school will: Use technology to blend subjects Instruct using research-based strategies Engage and support diverse learners Use data to drive instruction Build healthy relationships with family and community

The Mission drives the Work! MISSION DRIFT – the effect of choosing the “easy way” instead of the “right way” - what we get when we allow convenience to determine how we teach our students & raise our children. If we remain mission driven, the things we desire for our kids will line up with the possibilities that are in store for them.

The mission drives the work! When we decided to do what’s right, not what’s easy, when we decide to stick to the mission and pattern the work we do after the mission, we will be victorious in our efforts and our children will thrive! This mission is important! It’s the most important job we will ever have.
