Mission Statement:
Rita Kay Driggers  Elementary School has students, parents, teachers, and administrators who provide a stimulating environment that promotes academic excellence by developing independent learners who are responsible members of the school community.

Our Goal:
In every school, there is one goal parents and staff naturally share: that of providing a quality educational program. The parents have invested in the school their most valuable possession: their children. If a school program is to be successful, it must have the support of the community of which it is a part. Therefore, it is important that we form a partnership.
