* Impact Charter School West provides a comprehensive educational program that empowers global citizens to become academically, socially and emotionally prepared to make a positive impact in their local and global communities.
* Our students understand the value of contributing to the world in meaningful ways. They are global citizens who recognize their potential, maintain a sense of purpose, and use their individual and collective power to make a positive IMPACT.
* We believe that every student, with no exception, can achieve at their highest level, and our Big Goal reflects this - our students who are below grade level will make more than one year of growth every school year until they are at or above grade level in all subjects. Right now, many of our students are not at this level. Supporting them in getting there is the focus of everything we do as a team.

Building trust with each other enables us to honor the unique perspectives that every team member brings, talk candidly about these perspectives as we commit to decisions, and hold each other accountable for the results our students deserve.
