Mission Statement
Mission Statement
Haledon Public School’s mission is to prepare students to take their place in society as healthy, active, productive, and well-rounded people. We look to provide the best possible education for the total development of the child – academically, socially, and emotionally – as each student is given the opportunity to grow as a critical thinker and a socially responsible citizen.
By encouraging healthy friendships, reinforcing positive behavior, and helping students develop their unique talents, Haledon Public School strives to nurture students' self-esteem and motivate them to seek success in school and in life.
HPS is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion by fostering a safe, fair, and inclusive environment for all staff and students. HPS will continue to be culturally responsive in its quest to employ an educator workforce that reflects the diversity of Haledon’s student population. HPS will also maintain its commitment to integrating culturally-responsive practices into all aspects of school district operations.
