The Uxbridge
Public Schools serves approximately 2,100 students in
grades Pre-K through grade 12. Students attend Uxbridge High
School for grades nine through twelve, Whitin Middle School
for grades five through eight, Taft Elementary School for
grades one through four, and Early Learning Center for Pre-K
and kindergarten. Approximately 360 full-time and part-time
teachers, support staff, and administrators serve our
student population by providing challenging instructional
programs.
The mission of the Uxbridge Public
Schools is to provide challenging educational
programs and services to meet the diverse needs of all
students in a safe, supportive environment and, in
partnership with the community, prepare students to become
competent, creative, and contributing citizens.
Our Guiding Principles are:
-
Each staff member serving the Uxbridge Public Schools is
an educator and role model who makes a
significant contribution to the education, growth, and
development of the whole child.
-
The major role of all members of the Uxbridge educational
community is to prepare students to become
responsible, ethical, and productive members of society.
-
Educators best help students to succeed by
inspiring, challenging, and guiding them to reach their full
potential.
-
Learning is a life-long process, and all students
must be given full opportunity to reach their potential and
to develop an appreciation for learning.
-
Families are students’ first and most influential teachers
and are partners with the schools and the community in
promoting learning. Effective communication is essential to
this partnership.
-
The school climate promotes the social, emotional, and
physical well being of the members of the school
community. The climate must encourage respectful attitudes,
provide a safe, positive, and nurturing environment, and
promote inclusive practices.
-
Curriculum, instruction, and assessment are connected
and directly tied to National Standards and Massachusetts
State frameworks.
