Mission

The 21st Century’s mission is to prepare diverse children for access to the full array of life choices, including college and careers.

To achieve this mission, the school will:

  • Recognize each child’s unique abilities and talents, and use these assets as the foundation for academic development and individual growth.
  • Teach to mastery using rigorous curriculum standards with Core Knowledge as the framework for K-8 instruction.
  • Hold staff, students, family and community accountable for success of the whole.
  • Create a comprehensive program of best-practice to develop and nurture within each child.
Vision

The 21st Century prepares students for leadership in the 21st century, taking individual differences seriously, and crafting practices that serve each child equally well.

All students will:

  •  Master the body of knowledge, skills, attitudes and habits of mind that are critical to success today and in the future.
  • Be adaptable to a variety of circumstances and conditions over the course of their lives.
  • Recognize and respect diversity.
  • Have full access to American society. 
  • Develop the capability to contribute to a better Racine in future generations.

Every member of this learning community shares in the responsibility for the success of all others in the community and the school as a whole. Our culture is one of learning, and everyone learns, continues to learn, and supports the learning of others.
