Williamson
County School
District
The Mission
“To cultivate
the ability,
intellect, and
character of
each student”
The Vision
The Williamson
County Schools
is a
student-centered,
academically
enriching
district that
supports the
collaborative
educational
efforts of
students,
teachers, staff
and community.
The Goal
All students
will show at
least one year’s
academic growth
each year.
Beliefs
We believe. . .
1. All students
can learn more
than they are
currently
learning.
2. Education is
the cornerstone
of democracy and
civility.
3. Respect for
ourselves and
others is
demonstrated in
our
interactions.
4. Public
education
strives to
achieve a
balance between
academic, career
and technical,
and
extracurricular
activities.
5. It is
important for
all
constituencies
to work together
to attain the
strongest
educational
system possible.
6. Our
educational
system is a
learning
community. All
personnel engage
in continuous
growth
opportunities.
7. All forms of
data are
important in the
determination of
the present and
future plans for
public
education.
8. Public
education is a
responsibility
shared by
schools,
families, and
members of the
community. For
example…
a. Students
volunteer their
attention and
commitment when
they are
supplied with an
engaging
curriculum.
Students are the
primary focus of
our schools.
b. Teachers are
leaders of
students and
designers of
engaging,
high-quality
work.
c. Principals
are “leaders of
leaders” who
ensure that
teachers have
the ability,
flexibility,
resources,
and support
required to
design engaging
work for each
student.
d. District
office and other
support
personnel serve
to sustain the
work of
principals and
teachers.
e. The Director
of Schools
ensures that the
entire community
is aware of the
changing needs
of the
educational
system and of
the kinds of
support required
for the district
to pursue its
mission.
f. The school
board members
are advocates of
public education
and support the
efforts of the
district as a
whole to
accomplish the
district’s
mission.
g. All members
of the community
will offer
support in all
possible ways
when they
understand the
benefits of the
positive results
of public
education.
