GENERAL INFORMATION

MISSION STATEMENT

  • Farney Elementary promotes achievement levels that reflect high expectations, positive attitudes, teamwork, and respect for differences. Nurtured by staff, parents, and the community, students experience a well-balanced curriculum and a challenging learning environment. Parent involvement is valued as an avenue to ensure student success and a sense of community.

CAMPUS GOALS

    • Maintain high expectations for students-that they will demonstrate exemplary performance in their reading and writing of the English language and in their understanding of mathematics, science, and social studies.
    • Improve the academic outcomes of students in special populations (such as Limited English Proficient, gifted/talented, and special education) by implementing curricula designed to meet their needs.
    • Ensure students' literacy by making certain that all students can read and write on grade level or above by the end of third grade and every year thereafter.
    • Ensure students' competence by making certain that they reach or exceed grade level standards in math, science, and social studies by the end of third grade and every year thereafter.
    • Maximize student attendance and completion rates by remedying situations causing absenteeism and by reducing dropouts (psychological as well as physical).
    • Motivate students to strive for physical and emotional fitness and to embrace a drug-free lifestyle.
    • Close the achievement gap between at -risk and non-at-risk students by elevating expectations of their performance, accelerating their academic growth, and varying the strategies used in their instruction.
