The mission statement of Broad Run describes our aspirations beyond providing a safe, secure environment in which to learn. Our school mission statement speaks to accepting responsibility and respecting ourselves and others. It means that the school should be a place where all students have the opportunity to share ownership through activities, athletics, and clubs. It should be a welcoming place where adults take pleasure in interacting with students and viewing problems as opportunities to make a difference in the lives of young people. In the classroom, teachers have the opportunity to enhance the learning process by being exceptionally caring, demanding, and passionate, regardless of their teaching style.
Students have a responsibility as well.
They make choices good choices and poor choices. With each choice, they own their problems and the responsibility. They have the power and control over their future. Successful students demonstrate self-discipline. They do not make excuses for their failures, rather they see these failures as opportunities to learn and succeed.
