Preston School District believes that in partnership with parents and the community our schools will provide appropriate opportunities for all learners to reach their academic and social potential in a safe and supportive environment.

Our Beliefs are Centered in the Fact that All Students Can Learn

Academic Excellence 

  • Teachers are committed to the educational process, establish high learning expectations, value the diversity of their students, and impart knowledge and vision to help students become life-long learners.
  • Instructors use approved curriculum, instructional strategies, and best practices to promote active involvement of students and meet the individual’s abilities and talents.
  • Each child should become an effective communicator who can present his/her ideas using appropriate written and oral language utilizing technology as a tool.
  • As our district grows, our educational organization will advance continually to meet changing educational needs.


Community 

  • Schools are successful when there is strong parental involvement.
  • Communication with stakeholders is essential with all stakeholders in fostering a positive learning environment.


Environment 

  • Schools support a learning atmosphere where everyone feels emotionally and physically safe.
  • Schools are clean, safe, and conducive to learning.


Relationships 

  • Education is a shared responsibility with parents, teachers, and community for building character, integrity, and self-esteem in a diverse world.  These character traits, when practiced, will bring meaning and value to learning.
  • Trust, respect, and collaboration create an atmosphere of positive educational exchange.
