Our Mission

We, the purpose in education is to promote the general well-being of all students by assisting to develop his/her best personal and social competence while continually working within the framework of the principles and spirit of American democracy. The purpose of our school curriculum and program of studies is to implement these objectives since the school persistently strives to be familiar with the characteristics and needs of the community.

Our school program is concerned with more than the accumulation of knowledge, development of skills, and improvement of understanding. We strive to include the development of attitudes, ideas, and appreciation, and provide experiences for students to develop abilities, interests, and needs which will support them in their future roles in democracy.
