South Live Oak Elementary's Mission Statement
The mission of
South Live Oak Elementary School is to
prepare our children for life in a contemporary society by helping each child
achieve his/her maximum potential through intellectual, physical, and social
development.
We are a child-centered school where self-discovery and
experimentation are encouraged. Major emphasis is placed on the fact that each
child is an individual with specific needs, interests, and abilities regardless
of race, creed, or sex.
We recognize community and parental involvement as
vital components in the educational process. Our school actively solicits
support and resources from the community for enhancing various educational
programs.
We believe that maximum growth occurs when the child,
teacher, and parent work together for the child's benefit within a supportive,
interested, and involved community.
Vision Statement
South Live Oak Elementary envisions students who are
fully prepared to enter the 21st century as valuable citizens. We foresee,
through the use of educational technology, students who are able to access and
utilize information in all forms, to think critically in all disciplines, and to
develop an appreciation of their rights and responsibilities as citizens of our
community.
