The mission of the Watertown School District, with determination to be a world-class educational leader and a centerpiece of a dynamic and growing community, is to meet the needs of each student – academic, artistic, athletic, emotional, ethical, social, and technological – to develop members of our community who:
Embrace life-long learning;
Are caring and responsible citizens;
This will be accomplished by:
Establishing high expectations for all students;
Partnering with parents and a community as a whole;
Providing the differentiated instruction, guidance and resources necessary to achieve these high expectations set forth for our students, staff, and community.
