Our Vision and Mission
GLACIER’S VISION STATEMENT
The vision of Glacier is to create a rigorous, dynamic and accountable learning community that is built upon voluntary association, personalized student learning, high academic standards for all students and parent leadership. Glacier will accomplish these four complementary goals by providing all students and parents with: personal, experienced teacher guidance and support; powerful and proven instruction; ongoing, multiple modality assessments; and a large and growing inventory of high quality, standards aligned instructional resources that offer both breadth and depth in curriculum and auxiliary materials. As a result, students will develop the skills necessary to become responsible lifelong learners who understand personal dedication and desire as the keys for success.
