MISSION
Our mission is to create a dynamic learning environment that encourages each child to develop to his or her full potential. We are committed to creating an atmosphere that fosters intellectual curiosity and actively involves students in developing strong work habits, critical thinking skills and promoting social awareness. By creating strong partnerships with parents and other community members, we provide opportunities for students to link classroom experiences to the world outside. Our goal is to graduate well-rounded, bilingual learners who are prepared to meet the challenges of the 21st century.
