Mission           
We are dedicated to providing a small school to the community that is dedicated to the development and education of the "whole child". We strive to be a place that is caring, compassionate and has
high expectations for all of our learners. We will be a place where every child will learn, grow, thrive and be happy.
 
           
Vision   
To create and foster a community of skilled life-long learners who value and appreciate education as a means to achieve success throughout their academic career. We pledge to thoughtfully educate students of all academic and developmental levels using Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligences as our framework as well as research based instruction, curriculum and assessment, teacher, staff and family collaboration and creative arts and technology enrichment. Our students will grow in an environment that values the whole child educational experience – from academic rigor and project based learning to creative expression and leadership development.

The old Vista Hill sign came down and Mayor Cheryl Cox helped us with a pre-ground breaking Ribbon cutting. 

We have 4 months to get the new school in shape. We have a lot more to do so let us know if you can help.  Volunteers like those who showed up on Saturday is the key to our success!
