Philosophy
The Board of School Trustees believes that an integral part of the American ideal is the provision for the education of our youth through publicly supported schools. The South Dearborn Community School Corporation serves as an agent of the people, implementing appropriate elementary and secondary educational programs for all children. The Board believes in meeting the academic, social, emotional, and physical needs of all students to foster their healthy and productive development as citizens in a democratic society. We believe the corporation serves the community by providing programs and facilities while striving to make the most effective and productive use of human and fiscal resources. We believe in the importance of school and community partnerships and in the importance of all stakeholders to stay informed, involved, and be active participants in the life of the school and the children of the community.

Vision
All individuals within the South Dearborn Community School Corporation achieve their potential academically, socially, emotionally, and physically while becoming lifelong learners and contributing members of a democratic society.
