The mission of the Elmira City School District is to prepare students by providing opportunities to allow them to realize their full potential as life-long learners and contributing citizens in our democratic society. In partnership with students, parents and community, we are committed to helping each student use their unique abilities to acquire problem-solving skills necessary to actively meet life's challenges and create opportunities as they responsibly build their own and the world's future. In teaching our children, we will be respectful of our world's interdependence and the cultural diversity in our school district. Our schools are dedicated to maintaining a safe environment for all stakeholders that promotes individual personal responsibility, achievement and respect for all individuals.
