In striving to provide optimum educational opportunities for every student, the Shelby County Schools System is dedicated to the belief that each student is a unique person with dignity and worth. We endeavor to provide for the individual's safety and welfare and utilize success oriented learning experiences that will encourage them to reach their maximum potential intellectually, socially, emotionally, physically, aesthetically, and morally.
We believe that each school should be sensitive and responsive to the community needs which affect education. Therefore, each school's professional staff with the assistance from the community and system-wide school resources has the responsibility to develop a stable yet flexible curriculum that emphasizes proficiency in the basic skills as well as experiences that contribute to a comprehensive yet practical education.
Since learning is a continuous process and the school an integral part of the total community, we are dedicated to the development of an individual who will become a valuable, contributing member of society.
