Mission:

While the mission of all Pennsylvania public schools is defined by a series of regulations, the Wayne Highlands School District has traditionally required a standard for its graduates well beyond those of the state. Consequently, the faculty and administration adopted a District Mission Statement and Goals that reflect these ideals. These ideals are based on a foundation of excellence in teaching, scholarship, school citizenship and service. They also focus on the demands that will be placed on our students as they enter the next century. With these things in mind, the mission of the Wayne Highlands School District is to promote a school-community alliance dedicated to: 

• Dynamic and Flexible Education Processes 
• Success for All Students 
• Interdependent Lifelong Learning 
• Respect for Oneself and Society 

Our mission supported by teaching excellence, remains and will remain a focal point of the daily operation and strategic planning for our District's future.
