Our Direction

The vision of Hallsboro Artesia Elementary School is to cultivate students to become academically, culturally, and socially responsible citizens every day. 

We believe that:

1. All students can learn.

2. All students must have a safe and orderly environment in which to learn. 

3. All staff should be a positive role model for students.

4. Students should be taught respect for themselves, school, family, and others. 

5. Social, academic, and emotional needs must be met to educate the whole child.

6. Strong communication between home and school is essential for student success.

7. Regular physical activity is essential for developing healthy bodies and minds. 

8. We share with parents the responsibility of nurturing the whole child. 
The Mission of Hallsboro Artesia Elementary School is to provide an equitable environment where all stakeholders collaborate and engage in a meaningful partnership enabling students to reach their maximum potential.
