Our Mission

At Moran Prairie, we are committed to educational excellence. Through collaboration with all community members we will challenge our highest achievers to continue growing, and will continue to assist ALL students to achieve at the highest levels. Through continual research and assessment, we will ensure our methods are most effective in meeting our commitment for success. When students struggle to meet standards, we will direct a continuum of resources, from volunteers to extra time from certificated teachers, to help them succeed.

We strive to become an educational community where:

• Staff, parents and students work collaboratively to maximize every student’s education.
• All adults and children in the school community live with and by the Pillars of Character.
• All students exit our school valuing and embracing the diversity in our community, city, and world.
• Every student is challenged and stimulated intellectually by the classroom curriculum and instructional practices.
• Every student is prepared for the challenges and changes we will encounter in the 21st Century.

• For students to flourish and achieve maximally, we will nurture an atmosphere of trust through clear and open communication among and between staff, students and parents.
• Our teaching will expose students to a broad range of cultures, ideas, perspectives, and peoples in order for children to embrace the diversity in our community, city, and world.
• We will support, challenge and provide enrichment to ALL students to help them meet or exceed current standards.
• We will prepare ourselves and our students to tackle the challenges and changes that we will all encounter in the 21st Century.
