Goddard Public Schools provides a robust learning experience for all students through diverse and innovative instruction; meaningful connections between students, staff, and families; and implementation of research-based resources and instructional programs.

As outlined in the 2020-2025 Goddard Public Schools Strategic Plan, we believe:

• All students can learn and must have access to resources, which maximize their opportunities for post-secondary and career success.

• Education is a shared responsibility. Students, parents, community members, and the district must be active partners in the process.

• Status quo is not acceptable. We must pursue excellence in providing diverse and advanced opportunities for all students.

• We must continue to recruit, develop, and retain world-class staff members throughout the district.

• The district must provide a safe, caring, and connected learning environment to education the whole child academically, physically, and socially.
