The mission of the Graham and Parks School is to educate the whole child : to help every child in our school fully develop his or her unique intellectual, social, and emotional capabilities.

Believing that all children can meet high standards and become lifelong learners, we foster a child-centered learning environment in which children build upon their individual strengths while they are challenged to expand their skills and strive for new goals.
