What sets us apart. At CW Schools, we want to create a welcoming, supportive, and safe culture that ensures belonging for each and every student.
Safety and Wellness
Our top priority. For teaching and learning to take place, teachers and students have to know they are safe and be ready to learn.
Teaching and Learning
The heart of everything we do. Our mission is to empower all students for success through engaging learning experiences.
Operations
Everything that has to happen so we can teach and learn.
Our Focus
Our strategic plan is more than a plan. It's a promise, focusing on four district priorities:
- Teaching and Learning
