Our understandings of humankind and our universe are expressed and communicated through all of our arts and sciences. Each method of expression - language, painting, music, mathematics, and science - has its rules and techniques for effectively communicating these ideas and understandings.
These rules and techniques are bridges over which ideas must be communicated from one generation to the next.
Thus, the mission of Columbus Charter School through The Roger Bacon Academy is, for the next generation:
To teach the rules and techniques for effective expression and communication in the arts and sciences,
To communicate, by these arts and sciences, our understandings of the universe and our role in it, and
To instill a love of learning and discovery, justifying a life-long dedication to health, truth and virtue.
