MISSION STATEMENTS
Common Core

The CCSS provide a consistent,
clear understanding of what
students are expected to learn,
so teachers and parents know
what they need to do to help
them. The standards are
designed to be robust and
relevant to the real world,
reflecting the knowledge and
skills that our young people
need for success in college and
careers. With American
students fully prepared for the
future, our communities will be
best positioned to compete
successfully in the global
economy.
International
Baccalaureate

The IB aims to develop inquiring,
knowledgeable and caring young
people who help to create a better
and more peaceful world through
intercultural understand and
respect. To this end the
organization works with schools,
governments and international
organizations to develop
challenging programmes of
international education and
rigorous assessment. These
programmes encourage students
across the world to become active,
compassionate and lifelong
learners who understand that
other people, with their
differences, can also be right.
