The mission of the Bainbridge Island School District is to help all students become successful learners, caring individuals, and responsible citizens.

In order to fulfill our mission, we are committed to providing:

• Learning environments that are intellectually challenging and diverse, physically well maintained and equipped, and personally fulfilling.
  
  
• Highly qualified teachers, administrators, and other staff members who value and support the academic and emotional well being of each student.
  
  
• Safe, supportive, respectful, and productive school environments that serve the needs of students, staff, parents, and the community.
  
  
• State-of-the-art learning tools, including computers and other essential technology, that allow students to communicate, solve real life problems, and conduct research in the most effective manner possible.
  
  
• Professional development for staff, so they remain current in the instructional practices that best meet the needs of our students.
  
  
• Modern school facilities that enhance essential learning experiences and program opportunities.
  
  
• Opportunities for the involvement of parents and community members in the educational process, including program and school improvement planning.
  
  
• Clear vision and leadership at the classroom, school, and district level.
  
  
• Stable, sufficient financial support of our schools through local levies and bonds, as well as through state, federal, and private funding sources.
  
  
• Accountability at all levels to help assure parents, taxpayers, and others that our district is well run, that the needs of students are being met, and that public confidence in us is justified.
