Vision Statement:

At Sleepy Hill Elementary, it is our vision that a rigorous, relevant curriculum, enhanced by technology that will assure our students achieve skills necessary to succeed academically and become life-long learners. Consistent integration of technology throughout the academic day will promote our students to become self guided explorers of the vast amounts of information available at their fingertips.  We will unite parents, faculty and community members to establish an atmosphere of mutual acceptance, ongoing interest in high levels of academic achievement, and a sense of community for all.   The realization of this vision will allow our learning community to interface with technology for a more fulfilling exploration of their global world.

Mission Statement:

As Explorers at Sleepy Hill Elementary, we will implement district curriculum to prepare all students to be full participants in the global community of the future.  We will show respect, display healthy attitudes, explore responsibly, and always put safety first.

Belief Statements:
Through academic and social explorations, all Sleepy Hill Elementary students will readily grasp an equitable, high quality education.  This strong base will ensure success in their future educational endeavors and everyday lives.  This will be accomplished through the following beliefs:
*All students will reach their academic potential through differentiated instruction.
*A balanced curriculum is crucial to a student's progress.
*Ongoing staff development is vital to a well trained, high performing staff.
* A safe school environment is necessary for maximum student learning.
*The school community of families, staff, business partners and community members must work cooperatively together for the maximum functioning of a school.
