  Welcome to Selinsgrove Area SD     

Our Vision:

We envision the Selinsgrove Area School District to be a premier, exemplary student-centered organization where everyone shares the commitment to the education and development of each student. Our graduates will be problem solvers, critical thinkers, self-directed learners, effective communicators, collaborative workers, quality employees, proficient users of technology, and contributing members of a global society.

Our Shared Values:

  • We believe all students can learn and succeed given appropriate standards-based curriculum and research-based instruction.

  • We believe staff and physical facilities should provide a supportive, safe, and secure environment in which to learn.

  • We believe each student is unique and the educational experience should encourage and develop creativity and imagination.

  • We believe educational excellence must be supported by continuous evaluation of facilities and resources, effective instructional practices, and competent use of technology.

  • We believe education is a life-long pursuit and students must be equipped with the skills for success to meet the challenges of an ever-changing global society.

  • We believe in dedication to excellence and high academic expectations while maintaining fiscal responsibility.

  • We believe academic excellence is achieved through quality instruction supported by continuous, focused staff development which models life-long learning.

  • We believe education should promote character development, ethical behavior, and a positive self-image leading to being responsible citizens.

  • We believe effective leadership at all levels is essential to the success of our educational program.

  • We believe encouragement and support of innovation, flexibility, and creativity is necessary in order to successfully adapt to change.

  • We believe that the school, students, family, and community should have shared responsibility and shared decision-making in the educational process through collaboration and communication.

  • We believe excellence in all areas is identifiable, measurable, achievable, and worthy of pursuit.
