The philosophy of education of the Kings Local School District is based upon the belief that children are the most valuable resource in any community, city or nation. The maximum educational development of each student is our ultimate objective, and we formulate our curriculum around two major premises.

First, we endeavor to equip our students with the increasingly complex knowledge and skills to prepare them for vocations or for further formal education in college and professional schools. Second, we strive to introduce our students to practices and ideals of personal and group behavior that perpetuate and advance the aims and benefits of a democratic way of life.

Knowing that the causes of democracy and free education are bound together, we believe that one cannot survive without the support of the other. The responsibility rests with the school to project ideals of our democracy and to create an awareness of our American heritage sufficient to confront the conditions of a changing world.

We believe that the major purposes and goals of education are all-inclusive and are centered around the individual needs and natures of our students.
