The district's educational philosophy is based on the premise that instruction should develop in students: A desire for lifelong learning and self-improvement, an ability to think independently through the development of problem-solving and critical thinking skills and the highest level of achievement with regards to their individual abilities. We strive to provide the students of this community with the most complete educational program possible. We believe in the education and development of the whole child: intellectually, creatively, socially, emotionally, physically and culturally. It is important for them to develop an understanding of their own personality, strengths, weaknesses and capabilities as well as to develop ethical attitudes enabling them to exhibit respect, tolerance, kindness and justice to others at school and in the community. Educational experiences should challenge students by incorporating a variety of instruction strategies that differentiate, utilize problem solving, and integrate technology, student presentations, projects and teamwork.
