Beyond brick and mortar, a strong school foundation begins with an impactful mission statement. Please take a look at Trailside Academy's proposed mission statement:

The mission of Trailside Academy is to educate a diverse student body, providing each student with unlimited opportunities to become responsible leaders, effective learners, and contribute to a better world with self-confidence and pride through an educational environment characterized by: 

• Academic rigor and challenge;
• Ownership of student achievement among staff, students, families and community members;
• A safe, respectful nurturing, inclusive environment.
