Mission Statement - from Principal Larry Hazzard

The Mission of the Adelaide L. Sanford Charter School is to ensure that young people in Newark reach their highest educational potential through a standards based curriculum; a school culture of achievement and a continuous improvement; and a nurturing environment - all of which will enable our students to become Newark's future leaders and core professionals. We will achieve our mission by ensuring a working partnership with parents, students and members of our community.
