Mohawk Schools

Mission

We trust in a student's innate desire to learn, given that the environment is supportive and stimulating. We therefore view teachers as resources who nurture this desire. We recognize the worth and dignity of all individuals. Each student is different from every other student in important ways. It is our obligation to help prepare all students for satisfying, meaningful lives by providing guidance and learning experiences appropriate to their needs, interests, and abilities. The curriculum, organization, and atmosphere of the school should help each student to develop an awareness of his own worth as a human being, and a willingness to be responsible for his own decisions and actions. Ultimately, all educational efforts are directed toward developing a respect for the rights, dignity, and the opinions of others as well as an ability to function effectively and productively in society.
