Mission
THE PARK SCHOOL IS DEDICATED TO EXCELLENCE IN EDUCATION. THE CORNERSTONE OF PARK'S PROGRAM IS ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE, COMBINING BOTH HIGH STANDARDS OF SCHOLARSHIP AND THE ENCOURAGEMENT OF EACH CHILD TO DEVELOP TO HIS OR HER GREATEST POTENTIAL. OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY FOSTERS A NURTURING ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH CHILDREN DEVELOP CURIOSITY, EXPRESS CREATIVITY, APPRECIATE THE VALUE OF HARD WORK AND DISCIPLINE, AND EXPERIENCE THE JOY OF LEARNING. PARK'S FACULTY ENCOURAGES EACH STUDENT TO STRIVE FOR INTELLECTUAL, PHYSICAL, AND MORAL GROWTH AND TO BECOME CONTRIBUTING MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY. PARK IS COMMITTED TO BEING A METROPOLITAN, COEDUCATIONAL, DAY SCHOOL OF DIVERSE RACES, RELIGIONS, CULTURES, AND BACKGROUNDS. CENTRAL TO ITS MISSION IS AN APPRECIATION OF SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES OF PERSPECTIVE AND THE INTERDEPENDENCE OF ALL PEOPLE. AS A FAMILY SCHOOL, PARK IS A COMMUNITY IN WHICH THE DIGNITY OF EACH CHILD, TEACHER, AND PARENT IS RESPECTED.
