The Uxbridge Public Schools serves approximately 2100 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 the Early Learning Center for Pre-K and kindergarten. Approximately 310 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 is responsible for making 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 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.
