Coalinga High School
School Vision and Mission Statement
Vision
We believe that quality education requires the collaboration of the entire
community dedicated to the importance of student learning. All students must
have a challenging curriculum and a quality education designed to prepare them
to think critically, creatively, communicate effectively and act responsibly.
Students learn in many different ways, therefore, we must teach so that students
hear, see, experience and practice what they are learning. We seek to create
a safe and supportive environment, which instills in all students a sense of
self-worth and integrity.
We believe every student of Coalinga High School has the ability to succeed.
