Our Vision

We, as a community, make a collective commitment to 海角社区鈥檚 children. We will empower every child to discover and develop their passions, contribute to their community, and achieve a fulfilling and productive life.

Our Mission

We collectively commit that our students are cared for and respected, and that they will graduate from our schools prepared for success. All students will be exceptional in their own way, with strong character, a passion for learning, and ready for the widest range of educational and vocational options to support a diversity of life choices.

Developing The 海角社区 Promise

海角社区 Public Schools, working in partnership with our community,听engaged in听the development of The 海角社区 Promiseour strategic plan.

A first draft听was generated in January 2012 and shared with staff at all 22 schools, the Student and Parent Advisory Committees, the 海角社区 Public Schools Foundation Board, employee association leaders, and a variety of other parent and community groups.听Thousands of听comments were collected at meetings and through an online survey. Themes听were identified from those comments and that feedback helped build The Promise.

The 海角社区 Promise reflects our School Board’s policy governance policies, which听set desired outcomes for current students and graduates. The School Board meets regularly with parent, community and staff groups through linkages to gather additional input on our future听direction.

Every school year,听school and听district leaders use input to听develop a work plan听called Priorities for Progress听that support the five key strategies of The Promise. This is also a living document that is continuously updated and improved based on feedback. It helps drive resource allocation through our budget process. We are currently working on evidence and measures of The 海角社区 Promise with an emphasis on the whole child.

Looking forward:

We continue to improve The 海角社区 Promise collaboratively, so that our vision, mission, values, outcomes and work priorities are always owned by students, staff, families, and our greater 海角社区 community. Together, we make The 海角社区 Promise a transparent, online document that is easily accessible and memorable for all.
