The purpose of Taylor Hicks School is to provide a positive educational environment that will help each individual develop to his/her maximum capacity and become a well-adjusted, contributing member of an evolving democratic society.

Therefore, we believe:

The child and parents provide the starting place for all learning. The ultimate responsibility for learning lies with each individual.

The dignity, uniqueness and self worth of each individual should be recognized and nurtured both at school and home.

That each child's experiences in school are an integral part of life and should prepare the individual for a worthwhile future
