About Us

Our school is dedicated to engaging our families in the work we do each day. We believe that parents /guardians play an imperative role in the academic and social emotional success of their children. The relationships that we create with our school community members is one that is embedded in trust and support, so that all children will reach their fullest potential.  

Message from the Principal

It is our mission to provide Excellence and Equity for Every Student! We thank you for your partnership in helping us achieve this.  We know each student is an individual, bringing unique talents and needs to school every day.  The success of our school lives in its journey of fostering relationships, changing mindsets, and continually increasing the expectations we hold for ourselves and our students. We are committed to closing achievement gaps with a shared philosophy that every student can and will reach proficiency. We are a team, whose success is reliant upon a culture grounded in learning and sharing with one another
