Founded in 1952, the Model Community School District has a proud history of serving our community. What began as a single school has grown into a diverse district with a reputation for academic excellence, supported by generations of dedicated families, teachers, and staff. For over 70 years, we have been committed to providing a high-quality education that adapts to the needs of our students and community. Our history is a testament to our enduring commitment to learning and growth.
At the Model Community School District, our commitment is to provide a future-focused education that empowers every student and streamlines the experience for our families. Our mission and vision are built on three core pillars that guide our every action
Pillar 1: Transparent and Accessible Communication
We believe that strong schools are built on trust and open communication. This pillar is our commitment to making sure every voice is heard. By providing a clear and accessible channel for feedback, questions, and concerns, we ensure that our families and community members are always connected to the district.
Pillar 2: Community-Centered Engagement
Our district is more than just schools; it is a community. This pillar reflects our dedication to actively listening to and engaging with our families, staff, and students. By fostering a culture of two-way conversation, we can better understand the needs of our community and work together to create a supportive and inclusive learning environment for all.
Pillar 3: Efficient and Responsive Operations
We are committed to modernizing the way we work to better serve our community. This pillar focuses on streamlining our internal processes to ensure that all inquiries are routed to the right people and addressed in a timely manner. Our goal is to make communication with the district as seamless and efficient as possible, allowing us to be more responsive to your needs.
