Beginning with the philosophy of a sound mind and body, student success is the focus of teaching and learning at Nap Ford Community School. This belief is reflected in the mission statement:

The Nap Ford Community School is founded on the principles that it takes the whole community to educate the whole child, and that every child will learn. In developing the whole child, the Nap Ford Community School believes that Health and Wellness are the foundation on which the success will be built.

This positive approach to learning how to make healthy choices focuses on developmental assets and contributions that families, the school, and the neighborhood, youth organizations, and others living and working in the community play in shaping children’s lives. Understanding that nurturing personal habits related to wellness and learning are the cornerstones of success, the primary goal of the Nap Ford Community School is to ensure that every learner maintains motivation, enthusiasm and optimism in a safe, healthy, caring and learning environment.
