Our Mission...'Quality Education Begins Here'
Leadership Team's Belief....
"We believe in teaching the Whole Child"
B lackwater Community School strongly believes in empowering the staff at all levels for shared governance. This also helps keep the communication channels open throughout the organization besides giving all employees a 'sense of ownership'. School highly encourages all employees to be part of one or more committees to coordinate and organize various events at the school to promote 'parental engagement'. We appreciate the willingness of our staff and their committment to ensure that we as school stakeholders together help create an environment which enables us to accomplish our mission: 'Quality Education begins Here'.
