Philosophy

We are concerned with the school working together with the home and community for the overall welfare of all the children and the ultimate good that will be reflected as a result of the relationship.

We are aware that children need love and understanding for wholesome development. We want to work with the home to give this love and understanding so that happy, well-adjusted children will be developed.

Our school function with the total educational process is two-fold. In its first role, the school is obligated to teach the knowledge, skills, appreciation, abilities, attitudes, ideals and truths which are essential to effective living in our society. We are concerned with each teacher working with children as individuals who have distinct and different abilities. In its second role, the school will lead the home and community to effectively coordinate the total resources to improve the quality of living for all our students and families.
