About Our School

Our Mission

Our charter and mission is to establish and nurture a learning community which challenges traditional assumptions about the educational process in a way that

-creates a student-centered environment where students have choices, make decisions, accept responsibility, and work cooperatively;

-allows students to experience acceptance and criticism in a supportive environment;

-involves students in powerful learning experiences which include applied learrning projects and community service; and

-provides for broad-based involvement of student-mentors, institutions of higher learning, parents, and community in decision-making

so that students acquire a foundation of learning and real-world experiences which equip them to participate in traditional and non-traditional institutions of learning and become motivated, successful, life-long learners, collaborative problem solvers, and community participants.

Our Vision

 All members of our learning community will work and learn together, caring about and supporting one another, ensuring that student achievement is high, that staff continues to grow professionally, and that parents and other community members are involved as equal partners in supporting teaching and learning.
