Mission Statement:

The mission of the Wyckoff Public Schools, a district committed to excellence, is to provide educational experiences, instructional strategies and processes that enable all students PreK-8 to achieve and reach beyond the New Jersey Core Content Standards.

These experiences will promote students to succeed intellectually, academically, socially, and emotionally.  This will be accomplished in a supportive environment that strengthens self-esteem and motivates students to be life-long learners, enabling them to be successful in an increasingly complex world.

To Fulfill Our Mission:

We are committed to a strong and comprehensive educational program in conjunction with a learning environment that enhances self-esteem, optimizes each child's potential, develops a life-long love of learning, builds personal responsibility and fosters respect of others.

Fundamental to Our Mission:

We are committed to the active involvement of a highly competent and caring staff, teamwork, shared leadership, the effective management of resources, and a safe learning environment.  We pride ourselves on our dedication to our students, families, community, each other, our profession, and to continuous learning.

Professional Core Values:

Honesty and Respect: Honesty and open communication are the foundation of our professional relationships.  We respect, support, and value each member of our educational community.

Responsibility: We are responsible for the success of all students, the support of each other, and the support of our educational community.

Optimism: We are committed to positive attitudes and enhancing self-esteem for students, staff, and families.

Honor: We value and honor individual diversity within our staff, students and their families.

Commitment: We recognize that our obligations go beyond our professional responsibilities.  We regard fellow staff members and students as part of our extended family.

To that end, the Wyckoff Board of Education and Superintendent have identified areas for attention so that the district can improve the educational process resulting in increased student achievement by creating a more efficient and effective communication and governance process.
