WEST PARK PHILOSOPHY

West Park staff shares responsibility for the welfare and development of each child with parents and/or guardians.  By teaming, we can best meet student needs.

Our goal is to offer an education that best suits each student’s ability and helps each assume active responsibility for his/her learning.  The aim is to prepare students for responsible citizenship.

Our major instructional goal is for every student to become literate.  To foster success, we offer the skills, competencies, and knowledge necessary for each student to appreciate his/her heritage, to solve problems and to meet present and emerging needs.
