Mission
To provide each student with the opportunity to learn in a positive mutual respect, open communication, and fairness.
Vision
The vistas of learning and student achievement pivot on two fundamental cornerstones: early success in school and mastery of basic skills in reading comprehension, mathematics applications and writing skills. Readiness for learning is integral for success as children begin their educational quest. As such, a comprehensive pre-kindergarten program is essential to ensure student readiness. The mastery of basic skills is the key for success in all academic endeavors. It leads to the fulfillment of student achievement and influences student attitudes.
Nestled in the heart of Everglades, Everglades City School is a single campus school, located at the southern portion of the Everglades.
