Rising Tide Charter Public

To foster in each student a love of learning and high achievement through encouragement to continuously improve in the acquisition of basic skills through work on integrated projects that reflect life's real challenges. To create a safe, supportive environment where each person treats others with respect, and where a student can try new things and take risks without fearing teasing or failure. To encourage each student to grow and take increasing responsibility, both academically and socially. To create and develop in each student an awareness of the diversity both within and outside of the Rising Tide community and encourage tolerance, acceptance, and celebration of differences. To create a close community of students, teachers, parents and community members who work together to encourage students to develop into successful students and, later, into successful members of their local communities.
