Our Vision
The vision of the Anne Frank School is that every child will be respected as an individual learner. Instruction will be data driven resulting in instruction that reflects student's individual needs. Instruction will be monitored to provide the best education possible for every student. Our belief is that parents, students, teachers and administrators will understand and support our expectations.

Our Mission
Home to children coming from over 40 different nations and native languages, the Anne Frank School serves a preschool through grade 5 population that is diverse in ethnic and racial background. Included in our school population are students with emotional, learning and physical disabilities. Our highly uncommon student population presents the challenge of addressing the many academic, social and emotional needs that come from this diversity. Our school motto, “Working, striving every day to do the best we can,” summarizes the philosophy of our school community. Our teachers come to school each day ready and eager for the opportunity to provide an exciting and challenging learning environment for our children. Our students arrive enthusiastic about being challenged. We are a model of diversity in population as well as diversity in program.
