Academic Excellence through Artistic Experience

Vision:
At Blacklock, we see the future in our children’s eyes and work towards creating hope and opportunity for all.

Mission:
Together, we enable students to become self-sufficient, contributing community members.

Belief:
At Blacklock, we believe that integrating dance, drama, music and visual art into the lives of students will enhance the learning of core subjects. We believe that kids come first.

Statement of Purpose:

Our school is a place that promotes respect, responsibility, good citizenship, artistic and academic excellence in a safe, caring learning and teaching environment. Mistakes are learning opportunities through which a child can become more self-assured and confident. We believe in the benefits of teaching proper behavior when a mistake occurs, thereby turning a negative situation into a positive learning opportunity. The children will experience success through social development as well as in academics and arts.

Conduct Expectations:

All students, teachers, staff, parents, guardians and visitors have the right to be safe, and feel safe, in their school community. With this right comes the responsibility to be law-abiding citizens and to be accountable for their personal actions. All students have a right to learn in an environment that is positive and safe. Behavior that infringes on the rights and well-being of others is unacceptable and not tolerated.

At Blacklock it is unacceptable to:

  • Bully, intimidate or threaten others
  • Be physically aggressive
  • Insult or disrespect others
  • Endanger the safety of others
  • Disrupt the learning environment
  • Use or be in possession of alcohol or illegal drugs

As a Blacklock Citizen:

  • I will strive for excellence in arts and academics, always having a positive attitude.
  • I have the right to feel safe.
  • I can be counted on to make good choices.
  • I will treat others the way I would like to be treated.
  • I will use everything I learn to make this world a better place.
