Our Mission
Our mission is to ensure that all students have access to the best practices in reading, mathematics, social sciences, writing, technology, and the arts. All students will have access to resources that provide them with the knowledge, skills, and experiences for success through the use of data driven curriculum, standards-based instruction, and research-based staff development.  We are committed to providing an emotionally and physically safe environment for students and promoting the involvement of family in the education of their children.  In addition, Libby School strives to provide students with opportunities for extended school days and extra curricular activities that promote the development of the whole child.

Our Vision
We envision that all students at Arthur A. Libby Elementary School will excel in reading, mathematics, social sciences, writing, technology, and the arts.  We will serve the community and educate all students in the least restrictive environment and we ensure through standards based teaching that all students will achieve an academically well-rounded education and become life long learners. We strive to instill in all Libby students optimism, a value for education, and a positive understanding of their personal and educational expectations; providing them a place to dream big and achieve big dreams!
