The mission of Ridgeland School District 122 is to nurture independence and responsibility in students, empowering them with knowledge, skills and core values that contribute to becoming life-long learners, and active citizens while striving to achieve their future potential. We will accomplish our mission by fostering a partnership among children, parents, community, staff and the Board of Education, constantly striving to improve student performance to ensure no child is left behind.
Philosophy/Belief Statement
Knowing that all children can learn, we strive each day to provide an environment that contributes to positive attitudes and personal success for learners.
We believe:
Every child can learn.
Every child is unique and deserves respect.
Learning needs to be the focus of every classroom.
The school environment needs to foster self-worth and a positive relationship among students, staff, parents, community and the Board of Education.
Our community will benefit from schools with a challenging curriculum that is developmentally appropriate.
Therefore, we can build an educational foundation to serve children not only in further educational endeavors but in life as well.
