Small school... small town values

Mission & Vision

Mission Statement

It is our mission to educate each child to be capable of facing the future with the ability to be successful in all aspects of life; academically, culturally, emotionally, morally, and physically. All students will succeed by learning to own their own learning and cultivate their curiosity. Each child will feel a sense of belonging, confidence, and safety. Students will develop their talents, be held to high learning standards, and be prepared for life, as pursuing further education or other career choices.

Vision Statement

Gause ISD will be a safe haven physically and emotionally, where our students and teachers feel liberated to develop and nurture the whole person.

Our students will be encouraged to cultivate their curiosity and will realize questions are sometimes more important than answers.

Our culture will be one that inspires all to do their best with a curriculum that is relevant, challenging, and meaningful.

Our learning standards will enable students to acquire the knowledge, skills, and attitudes they need to successfully contribute to our democratic ideals.

Our students will have access to the tools of technology and will use these tools in learning and communication so they can compete in today's digitally connected world.

Our students will own their learning and apply it wherever and whenever needed.

Our students will know the development of their talents is valued. There will be safety nets to help them succeed.

We will have multiple assessments that assist us in the ongoing learning process and will serve as a positive influence in motivating our students to succeed. We will provide our students with a vision of the world in which they recognize all options available to them, such as pursuing further education or other career choices.
