Our learning community is rocking, and our staff is committed to providing a safe, supportive, and engaging educational environment where every student can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

Our mission statement is to create a positive learning environment with high expectations where students, families, and faculty work in collaboration for 100% student success.

This year we are proud to focus on focus on Standards based instruction, rigorous student-centered learning, and positive behavior supports.  You can see our action steps below:

1. Standards-Based, Data-Driven Instruction
• Implement intentional planning focused on standards progression and grade-level benchmarks.
• Use student data to drive differentiated instruction that meets diverse learning needs.
• Monitor progress using formative assessments and provide timely, specific feedback on learning targets.

2. Rigorous, Student-Centered Learning
• Facilitate hands-on, inquiry-based lessons aligned to standards and designated to promote higher-order thinking.
• Embed academic discourse and collaborative learning to increase engagement and understanding.

3. Positive School Culture and Behavior Systems
• Foster strong relationships among students and staff to promote a sense of belonging and motivation.
• Implement schoolwide PBIS with consistency, using Community Circles, Guidelines for Success (P.R.I.D.E.), and Defend-a-Friend.
• Recognize and reinforce positive behaviors while supporting proactive classroom management.

The goal is to empower students to reach their potential and become responsible, respectful, and compassionate citizens.

The school's strength comes from the partnership between students, staff, and families. We encourage our families to stay connected and engaged. Collaboration is encouraged to make this a successful and rewarding year. If you have any questions, concerns, or ideas, the principal is available.

Here's to a year of growth, learning, and achievement!

Mr. Chris Ateek,

Principal
