NAUSET MISSION AND VISION STATEMENTS

NAUSET BELIEVES

...Every child matters.

...Every child must reach academic proficiency, and grow personally and socially, through meaningful, challenging work.

...Our collective charge is to find ways to enable every child to do so.

...This will be accomplished by focused professional development, research-based practices (SBE), and professional learning communities.


MISSION

We exist to educate each student to the highest attainable levels of academic excellence, social responsibility, and cultural awareness.

 


VISION

Our vision is to be an exemplary public school system. That is, the Nauset Schools will continue to set standards of teaching practice at optimum levels of effectiveness.

Nauset's member communities provide the resources necessary to achieve this vision. The Nauset Schools are accountable to those communities for excellent educational practice and student achievement. This partnership requires the commitment of students, parents, and staff in an educational contract which acknowledges concerted efforts by all.

NAUSET PUBLIC SCHOOLS STRATEGIC PLAN

The Joint School Committees voted unanimously on October 30, 2008, to maintain the three goals recommended by the Strategic Planning Subcommittee in November 2005 for two more years (2008-2010).

Student Achievement

Student achievement is founded on the progress of individual students, at every level of ability, toward challenging goals. Nauset’s success must be grounded in willingness to analyze and address weaknesses as they become evident. We must continue to encourage excellence in the many ways our students learn and grow, both within and beyond the classroom.

Staff

Nauset recognizes the essential contributions of its professional staff to its accomplishments to date, and remains committed to supporting the superior Professional Development that has enabled such high student achievement. Our distinctive continuity of the preschool through high school program is a commitment that must remain strong. The engagement of staff in a collaborative effort to educate each student to his/her potential is Nauset’s next challenge.

Community

Nauset must consistently communicate its successes and achievements in a systematic, two-way engagement with the community. This connection, at many levels, must highlight the relationship between excellent schools and the quality of community life. These efforts must go beyond financial support and promote our citizens’ ownership of and pride in their schools.
