At Lemon-Monroe Sr. High School, it is our mission through shared responsibility with community, parents, students,and staff to provide an environment that maximizes educational opportunities for all learners, empowering them to succeed in a changing and diverse society as productive, creative, tolerant citizens of our global community.

The Educational Philosophy of Lemon-Monroe Junior-Senior High School

We believe it is the right and privilege of every individual to acquire an education that will provide that individual with the knowledge, wisdom, commitment and literacy necessary to enhance his or her opportunities for a fulfilling adult life and to serve the needs of society. Because the levels of literacy expected of Americans have risen greatly within the last decade, we believe the public high school should (1) offer curriculam broad enough to open opportunities to the student, (2) help toward training the student academically and vocationally to earn a livelihood, and (3) instill the philosophy, insight, and appreciation of the arts and self-control that will enable the individual to function wisely as a responsible and concerned member of a democratic society.
