Our mission is to provide a child-centered environment that will enable all students to become successful, active learners who enjoy learning. We will accomplish this mission in an inviting school climate, which nurtures a positive self-esteem and makes learning rewarding, challenging and relevant to every day living.
In order to meet our school goals, priorities and curricular bench marks a variety of teaching styles and classroom environments are available to our students. Our children are involved in an array of activities designed to help them become proficient and advanced in all content areas. We believe that our major focus is to develop in our children the love for learning and to give them the foundational skills, which will help them to become life long learners. Some of the activities, in which our students participate are, book publishing, summer reading challenge, Read Aloud, Reading Is Fundamental, after school homework / tutorial program, and extended year summer programming. Guided reading, shared reading,interactive media, thematic units, journal writing, and computer assisted instruction are but a few examples of the multiplicity of instructional strategies that complement our school’s emphasis on reading. This emphasis on reading has led to our school being named a State and National Title I Distinguished School, a WV School of Excellence, and given our school national exposure on the R.I.F. Network (a PBS production). Our school was the state wide winner of the R.I.F. Community Reading Challenge. We had 1,085 individuals from the community volunteer time to read to a classroom during the two week challenge event. A wide array of programs to support our students in their efforts is available, and those include: M.U.S.T.A.N.G.S (More Understanding Services Toward All Nutter Fort Grade Students) and our S.A.T. (Student Assistance Team), which are committees designed to assess and meet children’s academic, social, medical, nutritional and clothing needs. Our Project Shadow bonds at-risk students with school personnel mentors. The community Business In Education partnerships we are fortunate to have developed assist us in providing incentives for academic achievement, appropriate behavior, school attendance, and they also provide employees to serve as readers tutors and program leaders.
We believe that it is extremely important to have a vital partnership between the school, its parents and its community. We strive to keep that partnership alive and through it to better serve our students.
