Our Mission is to Prepare Each Student to Pursue Life-Long Learning

• We believe that no student is just another face in the crowd.
• We believe that all students can meet the requirements for a diploma – including passing all proficiency tests.
• We believe that academic rigor, lessons that are genuinely relevant to students, and the formations of caring, nurturing relationships are the foundations of academic excellence.
• We believe that good citizens are developed through character and values education, and that these ideals must be modeled for students by every member of the faculty, staff, and administration.
• We believe that preparation for post-secondary education benefits all students.
• We believe that every student must experience a sense of connection and affiliation with Clark High School through involvement with academic, extra-curricular, and service opportunities.
