The mission of the Haggerty School is to achieve high levels of learning for all students while advancing social justice and celebrating students’ social and emotional development in an inclusive learning community. The school aims to center the voices of students and families, especially those who have been historically marginalized. The monthly all school assemblies are written and hosted by our 5th graders with shares that come from students across the grades, showcasing all they are learning in and outside of school.
All staff work collaboratively to make sure students feel a sense of belonging. They believe that student work is the most important data that centers learners and drives instruction, celebrates successes, offers immediate feedback on what students can do to improve and thus, improves outcomes for students.
The school strives to foster a love of learning, scientific discovery, artistic expression, and justice- seeking among our students. The arts, sciences, and technology are integrated into collaborative projects. We offer Kodály-inspired music classes for our youngest learners in preschool through 2nd grade.
The non-profit Friends of Haggerty creates many special opportunities to learn and celebrate as a community. Highlights include Haggerty Day, annual Peace Day Concert, African drumming lessons, International Potluck, the Bionic Project, Talent Shows, and STEAM Night.
