We would like to welcome students, families and the community to the 2011-2012 school year. We are very excited about what the school year will bring for our students, staff, family and community. We look forward to the new year with excitement and enthusiasm.

Our vision is to accelerate the academic achievement of all students, in partnership with the entire community, to ensure that students have the attitudes, skills and proficiencies needed to succeed in college and in the 21st-century global workforce. Our mission is to accelerate student progress through effective implementation of The Master Plan, focusing on quality instruction, managing systems effectively and sustaining a culture of excellence. We plan to do this by providing a rigorous learning environment where students are consistently actively engaged in instruction. Interventions will be provided to students to ensure success for everyone. We look forward to the support of parents, families and the community in helping us to achieve our goals of increasing student achievement for all students.  We strongly believe the African proverb, “It takes a whole village to raise a child.”
