Mission

The entire community of Meriwether County Schools pledges to do whatever it takes for all students to attain high academic achievement as measured by local, state, and national standards.

Vision

In Meriwether County Schools, cultural change fosters high expectations for all members of the learning community. We use data to make all decisions, and we collaborate to do whatever it takes to close the achievement gap and increase student learning. We choose and nurture teachers who believe all students can succeed and who use individualized, differentiated instruction to make it happen. Self-reflection drives continuous learning and improvement for all. Celebrating our successes increases community involvement in and understanding of our mission, vision, values, and Smart goals.
