• Promote positive inter-relationships and partnership among staff, families and community in order to provide a quality education for our students
• Encourage and support responsible volunteerism in support of the education of our students
• Learning should be enjoyable so that both students and adults benefit from our educational mission
• The arts are an integral part of the education of all children.

Three Year Goals

• Develop strategies to increase the involvement of the local Hispanic community in our schools and across grade levels in order to provide better support and educational opportunities for Hispanic students.
• Identify and finalize a process and timeline for the District’s grade level configurations and transition in light of the continuing decline in enrollment in our region.
• Integrate the teaching of Spanish K-8 across all grade levels in order to build the foundation for a bilingual student body.
• Ensure that student learning is the priority by which all decisions, programs, and expenditures are measured.
• Increase student awareness, ability and accessibility to technology across our schools and subject areas.
• Emphasize healthy co curricular opportunities for students beyond our core academic programs to include Fine and Performing Arts, Industrial Arts and Sports.
