• IDA B WELLS HIGH SCHOOL MOTTO and MISSION STATEMENT

    MOTTO

    “Diligence, Excellence, Integrity”

     

    OUR MISSION:

    Our mission is to educate young people in every capacity – mind, body and spirit.

    We prepare students to succeed in their various roles in society: as workers who are responsible, innovative and ready to compete at a world-class level; as citizens who are both loyal to our community's democratic ideals and committed to the on-going work of forming a more perfect union in our heterogeneous society; and as adults who, in their private lives, balance the virtues of individualism, such as self-reliance, honesty, and personal initiative, with the cooperative ideals of justice, tolerance and compassion. 

    In short, our goal is to foster in our students the core intellectual capacities and habits of the heart that will allow them to lead deeply engaged, productive and meaningful lives.
