ABOUT US

MISSION STATEMENT

The purpose of Camden’s Promise Charter School is to provide the youth of Camden with a successful educational experience.  The school acknowledges that both family and community involvement are integral to the student’s academic achievement level, and will focus on fostering strong partnerships between the school, family, and the community.  Through these partnerships, the school will strive to create a nurturing environment by providing each student with five fundamental resources deemed necessary for healthy child development by the President’s Summit for America’s Future.  These include: a one-on-one relationship with a caring adult, a safe place to learn and grow, a healthy start, a marketable skill through effective education, and a chance to give back to peers and the community.

In order to provide quality education, the curriculum offered will involve rigorous academics with a holistic approach to education.  Special emphasis will be placed on the disciplines of Environmental and Biological Sciences.  Relevant hands on programs which integrate the development of mathematics, technology, and literacy skills will be utilized in the school and in the community to create an authentic educational environment for the student.  The development of character, leadership skills, conflict resolution abilities, and community responsibility will be stressed to provide the students with the necessary tools to become contributing members of a democratic society. 

Camden's Promise creates a safe and caring environment. We provide programs and service projects to develop critical thinking, team-building, and character building. Our mission is to generate student enthusiasm and interest in our world and society.
