13. Unpacking the Vision
The Keystone Central School District envisions a school
environment that fosters respect between and among students,
faculty, staff, parents, school leaders, and community members.
This community of learners is dedicated to high levels of academic
achievement through curricular and instructional practices that
meet the diverse needs of all students. Through the development
of open communication systems and a spirit of collaboration, the
educational system becomes a source of shared accountability and
positive outcomes for all stakeholders.
A graduate of the Keystone Central School District is one who
thinks critically and creatively, exhibits tolerance and respect for
others, behaves responsibly and ethically, and embraces
technology as it impacts the local and global society.
This ongoing journey is one that invites all stakeholders to
participate and embrace the opportunities for personal,
professional, and community growth available through the
Keystone Central School District.
