Educational Philosophy and Goal

         Our Democratic form of Government and our way of life depend entirely upon how well the public schools do the job of educating our children and training them for responsible citizenship.  This is the purpose for which the system of free public schools exists.

         Inherent in our philosophy of life in the United States is the belief that all members of society shall lead productive lives.  As such, education, either directly or in directly, is geared to this goal.  Because our heritage has developed the idea that work is an integral part of our lives, education strives to implement this idea so that our way of life will be perpetuated through individual success. 

         The basic foundation or our educational system rests in the principles set forth in our country’s Constitution; therefore, our function in this school district is to provide the opportunity for each student to develop the skills and attitudes which will promote these ideas.  To achieve this, the school will attempt to foster adequate emotional stability, intellectual understanding, physical development, spiritual enrichment, and social competence, in both basic skills and the higher order thinking skills.   

         The education philosophy believes, by promoting the school as a congenial place for students to visit, it will take its place beside the home and church in helping each child establish standards by which they may live and develop those qualities and attitudes that will enrich and strengthen lives.
