Our Vision

At Timber Drive, our vision is to provide a cooperative community effort to encourage the maximum achievement of each student. Through Professional Learning Communities, teachers collaboratively set goals, plan challenging and relevant instructional activities, assess individual student learning, and evaluate the results. By providing a safe and secure learning environment, students and staff are encouraged to be risk takers and are celebrated for their work. At Timber Drive everyone is appreciated and respected. Diversity among students and staff is valued. The education of students is the shared responsibility of the staff, parents, and community members. Together, we will provide our students the tools to become successful, lifelong learners, preparing them for bright futures in a global society.
