MISSION STATEMENT
Responsible
Educators,
Students and
Parents
Enriched by
Coming
Together

Our first priority is to provide a safe, supportive, trusting community in which all children will achieve high standards. In this collaborative environment, students will develop the skills and tools, both academic and interpersonal, to become responsible and productive citizens and life-long learners. Respectful behavior will be expected and modeled throughout the MacArthur Community.

It is our firm belief that a superior foundation in literacy and technology, along with quality decision making and ethical behavior, will be necessary for our students to influence, lead and contribute to society in this new century.

NEW!

Now You Can Talk Back! (Respectfully, of course!)

The council members consist of parents, teachers, community members and the principal.
