Our Vision
Donegan Elementary will be a place where teachers and staff create a framework for social and individual responsibility with emphasis on academic excellence and high social standards. Teachers build strong connections with parents, community and community partners. Students will attend school every day, celebrate diversity, work hard and apply their educational knowledge, while increasing participation in civic engagement and community service opportunities. Parents will actively support their children at home and in the school. The community partners will help create, support and maintain programs and services that will inspire students, parents and staff to become actively engaged in the process of reaching towards higher expectations, practices and opportunities while embracing a spirit of respect, diversity, resilience, strength and kindness.
What is a Community School?
A Community School is a partnership among community stakeholders, families, and schools. They are focused on supporting student development, improving academic performance, supporting families, and developing a stronger community.
To learn more about Community Schools, please read the Community Goal Overview or contact us with your questions.
We welcome all members of our community to get involved! A great way to make an impact at Donegan is to join our Leadership Team that meets every other month. Members of the Leadership Team include representatives from our partners as well as our parents and community members. Check out the calendar to see when our next meeting is!
