a place where high standards for academics and responsible behavior are
supported in a safe, nurturing environment through active learning, clear

Mission
Cognitive
-
At Sherwood Forest,
we recognize and value the diverse cognitive strengths and talents
of our students.
-
We respect the
developmental similarities and differences of individual learners.
-
Utilizing critical
and creative thinking skills, students learn to apply and transfer
learning within the classroom, home, and larger community.
Social, Emotional
and Physical
-
As a school, we
promote behaviors and attitudes that result in students making positive,
healthy choices for themselves and others. Students learn to communicate
their thoughts and feelings to others while also being effective listeners.
Students accept responsibility for their own actions and choices.
Family and Community
- Sherwood Forest
strives to be a "neighborhood school," serving our students,
families and the surrounding community. We welcome and invite parents,
as students' primary educators, and other community members to join
us as partners in building success for students as our future citizens.
- We are involved
in seeking and providing opportunities for support and growth within
our neighborhood school.
Staff

We model positive
attitudes, behaviors and academic learning for students.
-
We acknowledge
and reward positive attitudes, behaviors, efforts, and academic learning
on the part of students.
-
We set clear,
high expectations for students to: do their best, seek growth through
learning, work cooperatively, exhibit a willingness to take risks,
acknowledge and appreciate strengths in others as well as themselves.
-
We use an integrated
team approach to school and curriculum planning, utilizing professional
expertise and talents of our complete staff.
