The daily expectations are that every student will achieve academic proficiency and responsible citizenship in a challenging, yet nurturing environment. Students, with the support of parents, teachers, staff, and administrators, will develop a love of learning, an appreciation of the arts and culture, technical proficiency, and personal competence.
