The Mission of STAR Academy is to become a beacon in the community as a school of excellence that meets the needs of the whole child by offering a balanced, coherent and academically rich curriculum in a nurturing atmosphere that is family oriented, community supported, and developmentally appropriate.
The Faculty and Staff of STAR Academy believe:
Schools exist to serve children
The community, parents, teachers and students share in the responsibility for developing children into productive citizens.
The learning environment must be safe, structured, academically stimulating and nurturing to maximize student learning.
Students will experience success in a supportive and challenging environment.
All students should be given the opportunity to learn and to develop his or her strengths and talents to their highest potential.
Various teaching strategies and materials should accommodate the different learning styles of students.
Student academic achievement should be assessed in a variety of ways based on individual learning styles.
Students should be given opportunities to enhance their learning experiences through the use of technology.
Students should be aware of their unique ability to contribute to the school, to the community, and to the world.
The cultural diversity of the student body not only enriches the school's program, but also increases understanding of different people and cultures.
Multicultural activities, which stress responsibility for self and others and promote a social conscience, should be incorporated into the curriculum.
A culturally rich fine arts program, which enriches the classroom through field trips, classroom presentations, and extra curricular activities, should be provided.
Participation in physical activities will develop a healthy lifestyle and a wise use of leisure time.
Parents are entitled to assist in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of the school's program.
An integration of community resources will ensure community ownership in the school's program.
STAR Academy does not discriminate in
its programs
or employment on the basis of race,
color, religion, national origin, handicap/disability, sex, or
age.
