Hammond Hill Elementary School
MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of Hammond Hill Elementary School is to academically prepare children to function successfully in our changing society by providing educational experiences that emphasize academic skills, critical thinking skills, use of technology, respect for individual differences, and creativity.
Performance Goals:
All students have an intrinsic desire for learning that follows them throughout their lives.
All students learn in different ways and should be provided with a variety of instructional approaches to support their learning styles.
Given an inviting school environment, all students will acquire positive attitudes about learning and demonstrate enthusiasm for learning in all areas of the regular curriculum as well as visual arts, performing arts, and physical fitness.
With a committed staff of teachers and parents, all students will demonstrate skills in reading, writing, listening, speaking, math, and science as well as becoming critical thinkers and problem solvers.
All students need the ability to utilize technology to facilitate learning and prepare for functioning in their career choices.
Using character education models in the school, at home, and in the community, students can learn to develop respect for others and an ability to work cooperatively, including respect for differences in race, gender, abilities, and disabilities of others.
High expectations and clear goals regarding student behavior will set the standard for students to assume and accept responsibility for their own actions and the consequences these actions may cause.
All students can become contributing citizens of society.
