Our School’s LSPI Goals:

Empathy: Staff and student wellbeing- Promote student and staff wellbeing through prioritizing self-care, physical and mental health, and social emotional learning

NMAPA is committed to a positive school environment in which we support student and staff wellbeing. We believe in creating a positive learning environment for our students; where the students feel safe and can be fully engaged in the learning activities. We also believe that it is imperative to provide teachers and staff with the support to create a positive learning environment and ensure their well-being by prioritizing mental and physical health.

Equity: Multi-tiered system of supports- Implement a comprehensive framework to fully operationalize a multi-tiered system of supports to address academic and non-academic student needs and remove barriers to success. 

NMAPA believes that it is essential to support all students. NMAPA will correctly identify students’ needs and provide them with the necessary skills and support to ensure that they are successful in their academic and non-academic classes by removing all barriers to success. NMAPA believes in providing teachers with the time to participate in professional learning opportunities to support the implementation of tiered supports.

Equity: Opportunity and access- Expand student opportunities to engage in and have access to high quality, rigorous, and culturally relevant curriculum, and advanced coursework.   NMAPA believes all students should have access to a high-quality, rigorous, and culturally relevant curriculum that includes culturally relevant immersion activities.
 
Effectiveness: Results-Based Evaluation System NMAPA believes in having high standards and expectations for all students and staff to ensure student success. 

Excellence: Preferred education destination- Be the first choice of students and families for excellent schools and the employer of choice for educators and staff to fulfill careers.  NMAPA is an elementary theme school in GCPS and a school choice. We are seeking to be the premier educational destination for all elementary students and the employer of choice for educators and staff to fulfill their careers.
