Our Mission
Every member of the Thompson Elementary family believes that the academic potential of each student is unlimited. We refuse to accept the challenges that confront some students as excuses for poor learning. We know that one of the predictors of life success is educational success. Therefore, we are committed to creating a school that knows no limits to the academic success of each student. We also believe that every student can be well prepared for his or her future by being an outstanding citizen.
