PHILOSOPHY OF  EMANUEL COUNTY SCHOOLS

                                        

Education is a vital part of the American Democratic commitment.  The mastery of basic skills, the development of the ability to reason, and character development must be fundamental components of the educational process in America’s schools.

Just as essential as these components is the advancement of the value of living in a free-enterprise system.  The goal of education in America is to produce individuals who are knowledgeable and can make decisions for themselves as free members of a democratic society.
