OUR
MISSION
|
Our mission is to strategically provide a well-rounded educational program, in cooperation with parents, to our students using the most effective pedagogical approaches that intertwine the higher order thinking skills, University Interscholastic League (UIL) academic and athletic events, vocational events, and other appropriate activities as deemed important by the educators and community, in an up-to-date technological and highly disciplined, yet comfortable educational setting where students are free to express themselves and to be creative. The students will be the center focus of the school and community, and all educational decisions will revolve around the best interest of the students.

OUR
VISION

Our vision is to provide the students and/or citizens, young or old in our community with the basic knowledge and essential attitudes, skills and values which deem necessary to function in the ever-changing social, economic, technological, and political environment that we call the United States of America. Since the individual is so important in our society, the Amherst I.S.D. shall strive to encourage the individual to develop socially, mentally, physically, and morally, and to help him to establish and to pursue his special goals and to expand his special talents for the mutual satisfaction of both the individual and society.
