The mission of the Vista Grande Elementary School community is to provide each student with an exceptional education in a compassionate, diverse, and safe environment.
We believe:
- That education is a collaborative effort shared by the entire community - students, family, staff and community members.
- In encouraging individuals to appreciate the value and worth of themselves and others.
- In providing exceptional support, care, and understanding.
- In providing the opportunity for every child to achieve to their greatest ability and potential, in order to become lifelong learners.
- In creating a safe educational atmosphere where individuals can identify and pursue intellectual, artistic, and extracurricular interests.
- In preparing students to be responsible, productive and thoughtful members of society.
- Optimal learning depends upon innovative educational opportunities, quality staff and facilities.
- Professional development is essential to meet the needs of students.
There are a variety of programs available for our students to get the highest quality of education. Aside from the basic academics of reading, writing, math, science, and social studies, the students at Vista Grande are exposed to enrichment activities in the areas of science, art, music, and gardening.
