We Are PACT
Pursuing Academics and Character Together.
PACT Distinctives

Academic Excellence
Pursuing academic excellence through student-focused instructional planning to develop the mind and a life-long love of learning to make exceptional contributions to the world.

Character development and education are a shared responsibility of families and teachers in our welcoming environment that embraces family life. Teachers and families are mentors, motivators, and inspirations to students.
Community Engagement
Active participation by parents and teachers offers shared responsibility for student success. We build relational trust to create partnership opportunities between families and the school community, including collaboration with local leaders.
