Approved by the Orono Board of Education - July 9, 1990 <br />MISSION STATEMENT <br />The Board of Education of School District 278 recognizes its responsibilities to <br />the residents of the communities served and acknowledges the continuing suppc <br />of the citizens. The most fundamental of those responsibilities mandates the <br />development and implementation of a sound educational program which promotes <br />Intellectual curiosity and assists each student to reach his/her potential. As <br />such, the curriculum seeks to meet the needs of individual students by means of <br />a coordinated program of studies based on the instructional goals of the <br />District. The curriculum is implemented by each teacher's responsible selection <br />and use of sound methods of instruction. <br />Additionally, the educational responsibilities of the Board of Education require <br />the development and implementation of an effective program of cocurricular <br />activities for students and the availability of self-development opportunities <br />for all residents. The latter is accomplished through a program of Community <br />Education. <br />In order to meet its educational responsibilities, the Board of Education is <br />dedicated to continued growth and learning for all who serve district students: <br />staff members, teachers, administrators, and members of the Board of Education. <br />The stated instructional goals, listed in priority order, define more specifi­ <br />cally the mission of School District 278 and its educational commitment. The <br />goals are promoted within established fiscal policies according to the priori­ <br />ties, limitations, and obligations of the School District.
