Visioning Process
When we enter the Feasibility Study module / phase of the project, we will be working together to get input from residents through surveys, visioning workshops, and community meetings to get valued feedback for the Feasibility Study process that ties back to the mission and values of the North Andover Public Schools and the community.
Mission Statement
The mission of North Andover Public Schools is to cultivate a respectful community of engaged learners, insightful thinkers, and effective communicators. We do this by providing a vibrant learning community for students in grades preschool through 12. We are committed to ensuring that all of our students are provided an equal opportunity to an excellent education. Our hope is that the strong educational foundation our students receive will allow them to access numerous opportunities beyond our walls.
Community Values - R.A.I.S.E.
Civic and character education is vitally important to the development of well-rounded students. Our Building Respectful Community (BRC) initiative highlights the values associated with RAISE.
Respect: North Andover students will demonstrate respect. They will think about others before speaking or taking any action. They will appreciate the contributions of others, while showing respect for themselves, other people, personal and/or community property and the environment.
Achievement: North Andover students will demonstrate achievement. They will exercise their best effort and judgment in all activities in which they participate and will set goals that promote positive academic, social, and personal development.
Inclusion: North Andover students will demonstrate inclusion. They have a responsibility to break down barriers by inviting new people into teams, circles of friends, and experiences as they work to be a unified, collaborative community.
Service: North Andover students will demonstrate service. They believe the growth and improvement of a relationship and community depends on the willingness of others to contribute support to the greater good.
Empathy: North Andover students will demonstrate empathy. They will be aware of and consider another persons situation, feelings, or motives before speaking or taking action.
