Mission Statement

The mission of the BPNCS is to provide a safe and nurturing school environment and equitable student access to an enriching and challenging mastery learning curriculum containing the skills, content knowledge and character development for quality student outcomes and to help all students become successful life-long learners and responsible, informed citizens of the 21st century.
The future of our country and our American way-of-life depends upon the education of our children. In Florida and Monroe County, we must rise to the challenge of continuing to build our public school education system into a responsive institution that serves our students, our State, and our Country with pride and distinction. BPNCS is about recommitting ourselves to the highest standards of education rather than accepting the minimum basic skills.

Core Values

We plan to make our neighborhood Charter school into one of the leading public elementary schools in the state. Our standards for educational quality will be second to none. The core values of honesty, accountability, integrity, respect, tolerance, fairness, self-discipline, responsibility, citizenship, work ethic, and trust are the foundation upon which our school is built.
