Mission Statement
OUR SCHOOL MISSION is to accept children with honor and respect, educate them with love, and prepare them for lives of freedom and responsibility.

Students should not arrive more than 15 minutes before the beginning of the school day, as there are no school personnel available to supervise the yard until this time. Therefore, morning Kindergarten and grade 7-8 students should not arrive prior to 8:15 am and grades 1-6 should not arrive prior to 8:35 am.
