Mission & Vision

Guiding principles that drive everything we do

Providing Excellence in Education

The Leona Group Schools exist to provide students with an excellent education in a safe, nurturing environment that prepares them for success in the 21st century.

We accomplish this mission by:

  • Maintaining Small Class Sizes

    We keep our classes small so teachers can provide individualized attention to every student. When teachers know their students well, learning thrives.

  • Hiring Exceptional Educators

    We recruit, develop, and retain teachers who are passionate about education and committed to student success. Our educators are the heart of our schools.

  • Creating Safe Learning Environments

    Students learn best when they feel safe, respected, and supported. We maintain orderly, welcoming schools where students can focus on learning.

  • Partnering with Families

    Education is most effective when schools and families work together. We actively engage parents as partners in their children's education.

  • Pursuing Continuous Improvement

    We use data to drive decisions, embrace innovation, and constantly seek better ways to serve our students and families.

What Makes Us Different

The Leona Difference means putting students first in everything we do

Small by Design

Our schools are intentionally small. We believe that when schools are too large, students become numbers instead of names. In our schools, every child is known, valued, and supported.

Culture of Care

We don't just teach academics—we care for the whole child. Our staff members build genuine relationships with students and families, creating a supportive community.

High Expectations

We refuse to limit what our students can achieve. Every child is challenged to reach their potential, supported by rigorous academics and dedicated educators.

Transparent Communication

We keep parents informed and involved. From regular progress updates to accessible staff, we make sure families always know how their children are doing.

Safe Spaces

Learning requires feeling safe. Our schools maintain orderly, secure environments where students can focus on what matters most: their education.

Tuition-Free

As public charter schools, we provide all of this at no cost to families. Excellent education shouldn't depend on zip code or income level.

Looking Forward

As we look to the future, our commitment to our vision and mission only grows stronger.

The world our students will inherit is changing rapidly. New technologies, new challenges, and new opportunities emerge every day. We are committed to preparing our students not just for the world as it is, but for the world as it will be.

This means continuously updating our curriculum, investing in technology, and developing new programs that prepare students for success in the 21st century economy. It means teaching not just content, but critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration.

Most importantly, it means never losing sight of what matters most: the individual student. No matter how the world changes, our commitment to knowing each child, nurturing their potential, and preparing them for success will never waver.
