Our core values reflect our dedication to academic achievement, personal growth, and well-being. We believe that: 

  • All students are capable of learning at high levels.

  • Students succeed in environments where they are safe, supported, and have a sense of belonging.

  • Resilience and perseverance help students to overcome obstacles, leading to deeper learning and personal growth.

  • A culture of curiosity and creativity inspires students to develop a passion for learning.

  • Diverse learning environments benefit students and enrich our community.

  • Students need to learn key knowledge and skills for their future, including the ability to solve problems, to communicate effectively in diverse environments, and to think critically.

Vision Statement

Belmont Public Schools envision a future where students think critically, learn independently, collaborate and communicate effectively with people who hold diverse perspectives, and solve complex problems as they contribute to the broader community. 

Strategic Plan

Belmont Public Schools has established a strategic plan that will guide district improvement over the next few years. This plan is anchored in the newly-formed mission, vision, and core values and is organized around 3 key strategic priorities.

  • Academic Excellence and Equity for All Students

  • Social-Emotional Well-Being, Belonging, and Engagement

  • Family and Community Communication to Support Student Learning

The BPS Strategic Plan 2024-2027 includes three-year goals, benchmarks, outcomes, and annual objectives. Each Strategic Priority is detailed below. To view the plan as a pdf click here BPS Strategic Plan 2024-2027.

For each priority, there are 3-year and annual goals identified. The goals are developed out of the current state, which comes from a variety of data sources. The data analysis that yielded the current state, started with key areas that were first identified in the Superintendent’s Report of Entry Findings (December 20, 2023). 

The theory of action statements articulate what the district expects to see as results of specific efforts and key steps to improve programming. These are important to outline the relationship between inputs (action steps for improvement) and outputs (Objectives and Outcomes / Measures).
