About Us
Our students are encouraged to be "Upstanders" and are given opportunities to be responsible citizens. 21st century skills drive our instructional practices to provide opportunities to grow and become critical thinkers, collaborative workers and creative problem solvers. Our curriculum is rich in opportunities to explore the sciences and practice algebraic thinking. It is our goal to not only produce students ready for their academic future, but also to be cooperative and caring members of society.
