Mission Statement

Lemon Road is committed to fostering a community of learners striving for excellence while celebrating the uniqueness of the individual and valuing the family as an integral part of a student's educational experience.

We believe...

* Cultural diversity should be recognized, appreciated and respected.

* Specific and disparate needs of students should be identified and addressed.

* Cooperation is a foundation of learning. We support cooperative learning in the classroom and value a team approach for team members.

* Both adults and children need to take appropriate risks in order to achieve personal growth.

* Students have the right to work together in a safe, nurturing environment where learning styles are acknowledged, current technological tools are employed, literature is valued, curiosities piqued and opportunities for creative outlets are explored.

* Professional development is maximized when staff members consult, coordinate, and share their knowledge and experience.

* Consistent and effective communication between home and school is paramount in building positive relationships. Staff members should be readily available to provide assistance to support academic success, share school resources, sponsor parent education programs, and suggest community and private agencies where appropriate.

* A holistic approach to the education of our students assures a strong, flexible, balanced instructional program and results in an environment conducive to learning.
