Our new mission statement has finally been finalized and it was great to see teachers, students and parents come together for its creation. It truly embodies positive action steps for any school.
As a community, we will...
Engage in critical thinking
Learn collaboratively
Honor diversity and
Strive for Success.
Our goal is to emphasize these elements in all we do and we have already seen evidence of it in our community.
Engage in critical thinking- Whether in the classroom, at math meets or robotics competitions, students at ELHS are exposed to the value and importance of looking at problems or issues through a critical lens to find solutions.
Learn collaboratively- At ELHS, classroom projects and extra curricular activities and clubs help our students get ready for the real world by learning to manage situations with others. Our teachers are also involved in this process through their professional learning communities.
Honor diversity- This year at ELHS, we welcomed the Multi-cultural club that has already engaged in events that expose our students to many important world issues. Additionally, a new chapter of the Gay Straight Alliance was added to ELHS.
Strive for Success- It is our hope that every member of the Spartan family will develop a strong work ethic and commitment to academic and social excellence. Reaching one's highest potential is the best thing we can do for our students.
