Fancy sayings or philosophical musings in a school’s mission statement are merely words unless they’re implemented with love, care, and purpose.  At Kingfisher Schools, we make it our mission to be fully engaged and synergistically focused so our kids can experience, grow and develop in a strong and vibrant school district.  One of my responsibilities as Assistant Superintendent is to encourage the professional growth of our faculty, enabling us to accomplish the ordinary in extraordinary fashion.

Currently our district is at the very top in every educational category.  Attaining and maintaining this status is just a means to an end; the concluding results being the proliferation of the next generation of leaders that will continue our school’s heritage of graduating pillars of success and strength.  In order for our students to thrive without distraction, we emphasize effective and open communication channels between teachers, parents and caregivers.

In partnership with parents and caregivers, our goal is to guide students in problem solving skills, to encourage them to listen to their hearts, to understand the importance and scope of well-meant criticism, and to stretch themselves academically, all in an effort to help them reach their full potential. With the help and participation of active parents and caregivers, we believe a student’s potential is limitless.

I’m Terry Payne and I welcome your input.
