Executive Summary:
Robert M. Hughes Charter School prepares 180 kindergartners through 8th grade students at 91 School Street, Springfield, Massachusetts. The two story brick building has 10 classrooms, offices, a computer lab, and cafeteria. The school has 50 computers.
The Robert M. Hughes Academy Charter School has a student-centered and teacher-driven educational approach. The personal growth of each student is the number one priority of the entire RMH community. At RMH, each teacher has the personal goal of supporting all students to reach their highest possible level of educational achievement and their broadest possible personal growth. This goal extends to every other member of the RMH community from staff to administrators to parents.
Vision:
Our vision is to create a learning community of technologically literate life-long learners able to interact successfully in a technological environment to achieve their personal, educational, and workplace goals. Our students, faculty, and parents will use technology to access, retrieve and use information, and communicate within the school and community. By using the Internet we can gain an understanding of the worldwide resources available for communications, research and problem solving.
Mission Statement:
The mission of the Robert M. Hughes Academy Charter School is to provide urban students in Springfield, Massachusetts the opportunity to achieve academic and personal excellence when offered an intellectually challenging curriculum and a supportive environment. These two key elements combine to foster the development of the love of learning, moral character and social responsibility. We believe that all children will learn when those responsible for the education of our children communicate to them the clear expectation that they can learn. We believe, therefore, that the success of our students rests on the establishment of and adherence to high expectations and a commitment to rigorous standards of achievement and accountability for students, parents, teachers, and administrators. Our students will graduate from the RMHACS armed with the tools they need to meet the world on its own terms and the ambition and capacity to become leaders in society.
