BOARD VISION

Mission Statement

“Sioux Central will provide opportunities for each student to develop academically, emotionally, and socially into a competent and responsible citizen.”

Belief Statements

We believe that all students can learn, but they learn best when their individual needs are met.

We believe teachers must be flexible to meet the needs of students at their individual levels and offer opportunities for all students.

We believe we best meet the needs of students by providing a caring, nurturing environment—an environment that cares for both students and staff.

We believe students learn at the highest levels when they are challenged with a rigorous, relevant, and meaningful curriculum.

We believe education is a collaborative effort where teachers work as a team and engage the stakeholders of the entire community to assist in our efforts.

We believe students retain knowledge best when they are engaged in their learning and involved in their school.

We believe our ultimate goal as a school is to develop our students to be life-long, independent learners and productive citizen for a changing world and an ever changing society.
