Mission Statement

Salina Public School's and the Salina Board of Education's philosophy is that all children can learn, and we as, educators, have a responsibility to provide an environment that is safe, comfortable, and conducive to learning.  It is our belief that the school is an intertwined part of the community; therefore, community involvement is essential for its proper functioning of the school.

Educational Philosophy

Our democratic form of government and our way of life depends entirely upon how well the public schools do the job of educating our boys and girls and training them for responsible citizenship.  This is the purpose for which the system of free public schools exist.

Inherent in our philosophy of life in the United States is the belief that all members of society shall lead productive lives.  As such, education, either directly or indirectly, is geared to this goal.  Because our heritage has developed the idea that work is an integral part of our lives, education strives to implement this idea so that our way of life will be perpetuated through individual success.

The basic foundation of our educational system rests in the principles set forth in our country's constitution; therefore, our function in this school district is to provide the opportunity for each student to develop the skills and attitudes which will promote these ideals.  To achieve this end, the school will attempt to foster adequate emotional stability, intellectual understanding, physical development, spiritual enrichment, and social competence.

The school will take its place beside the home and the church in helping each child establish standards by which he/she may live and develop those qualities and attitudes that will enrich and strengthen his/her life.

Salina Public School's core belief is that all children can learn. It is up to us, as educators, to guarantee each student is taught with a method that develops a strong self image and is encouraged to reach their academic potential.
