 Our Mission Statement The educational mission of the Bloomington Public Schools is to assist, challenge, and enable each student to develop into a productive and constructive citizen in a global society. The individual student is the emphasis of the educational program. Through a curriculum which stresses critical thinking, problem solving, and the enhancement of communication and computational skills, the District’s education programs respond to varying learning styles and learning abilities while instilling within the student the notion that learning is fun, meaningful, and has a purpose. The Bloomington Public Schools accepts as its responsibility the learning success for all students in an effective school climate characterized by: • Well defined priorities for teaching and learning; • A building-based education program; • A business-like atmosphere with learning as the important business; • An environment with explicit standards for behavior where discipline, when required, is administered quickly and fairly; • Parental involvement in the life of the schools; • Community/business support of and involvement in the life of the schools; • A neat, attractive and well-maintained physical environment that serves the educational programs and community needs; and • Quality teachers.
