All students can learn and have talents and abilities worth developing. Technological innovations are an integral part of the learning process. A quality staff is a key ingredient for an effective school. All students will be critical thinkers and problem solvers. All individuals deserve to be treated with respect.
All individuals have the right to learn in a safe and secure environment.
The development of students academically, physically, socially, emotionally, and culturally is a collaborative effort of the parents, school, businesses and community. Well-educated citizens are the hope for the future of America. The faculty and staff of Herbert A. Wood Elementary School believe it is our responsibility to encourage and to stimulate each child academically, while also providing for physical, emotional, and social growth. We believe students learn best in an accepting, secure and consistent environment where the dignity of each individual is respected. We value each child as a worthwhile person who has the right to experience success.
