The mission of the Bristol-Plymouth Regional Technical School is to enable all students to become skilled productive members of a global workforce, responsible and creative citizens, ready and able to engage in the activities of our technologically complex and diverse world.
Enriched by the cultural and socioeconomic diversity of the Bristol-Plymouth community, we are committed to creating a learning environment that fosters cooperation and mutual respect and that values the individual differences and the ethnic diversity of its members. We strive to create a learning environment that seeks to establish high expectations for all its students by utilizing the rich diversity of professional skills of our staff. This environment will enable students to make informed decisions and take responsibility for their own behavior while developing cooperative relationships with their peers and the school’s staff. We recognize our responsibility to be sensitive to varied learning styles and to individual needs. In response to those needs we will adjust methods, materials and programs innovatively as we strive to instill in each student positive self-esteem, self-confidence, self-discipline and the necessary skills that will enable each student to reach his/her full potential.
The curriculum of our school will provide a dynamic, quality education that will meet the needs of all its students by providing each student with both the academic and technical skills necessary to gain entry into the work force of the 21st Century. Our focus is to develop the intellectual, physical and social skills of every student; providing them with the ability to adapt to and meet the challenges of a changing, competitive global society. Students will see themselves as lifelong learners able to access, process and communicate information in a multitude of formats.
The partnership of our technical curriculum, academic curriculum, up-to-date technologies and extra-curricular programs provides for increased success of all students. All students can produce quality work when they learn to use technology, especially in the areas of communication and research. Technology helps to close the gap that now exists between the performance of our most challenged and our most capable students. Through professional development, technological advancements and curricular modifications, we are committed to meet the constantly changing needs of our society and workplace.
Additionally, the staff and Administration recognize their shared obligation with the family, the regional community and local industry to prepare students for success in school and in a competitive workplace. By actively seeking involvement of the family, by effectively utilizing the advisory committees of each technical area, and by developing post-secondary educational linkages, and various school-to-work partnerships, the educational preparation of each student is enhanced.
Ultimately, it is our expectation that graduates of Bristol-Plymouth will become productive and successful citizens equipped with the critical and creative thinking skills needed to meet the challenges of a changing, competitive global society.
