Through sound decision making and appropriate risk-taking, students will grow physically, emotionally, and academically. Classroom instruction is supported and enhanced by art, physical education, music, media, computer, AIG, reading, and resource specialists. Mangum staff, students, and parents worked together to develop many outdoor learning areas, such as classroom gardens, a fossil pit, tree trail, amphitheater, and butterfly garden. We strive to provide meaningful, real life, learning experiences that challenge students at their level. We focus on critical and creative thinking and problem solving strategies.
All schools have school nurses, counselors, psychologists, and social workers to assist students.
