Rankin Elementary School Mission, Vision and Values
Mission Statement:
The primary mission of Rankin Elementary School is to ensure academic and behavioral progress for all students. Academic progress will be achieved through the use of data-driven, targeted instruction that includes the use of small groups in differentiated instruction. Behavioral progress will be achieved by the use of a school-wide discipline plan that includes the Girls and Boys Town Skills and the Character Counts pillars being actively taught and used by the administrators, teachers and staff.
Vision Statement:
Our vision is to be a recognized school where teachers collaborate and use data as a tool to drive instruction. We strive to be a place where students, teachers and parents feel valued.
Shared Values:
Our faculty will:
- Actively teach and model the behaviors we want to see in our students.
- Make good use of instructional time by eliminating activities/procedures that take away from instructional and planning time.
- Help our students achieve by monitoring the learning of individual students, to differentiate instruction based on results, and to provide timely feedback to assist students in meeting their goals.
- Use effective assessment methods to provide evidence of student achievement.
- Involve parents in the education of their children by maintaining open lines of communication between students, teachers and parents in order to ensure success academically, socially and emotionally.
- Provide an inviting, organized classroom environment for students - an environment with clear expectations, consistent consequences, and specific, articulated, academic goals.
- Demonstrate our commitment to improving our skills by attending ongoing professional development, including attendance at PLC meetings to discuss areas in need of improvement.
