Mission Statement
Mark T. Sheehan High School provides a challenging and supportive environment that inspires students to be critical thinkers, effective communicators, and responsible, contributing members of a global dynamic society.
We believe that:
Student learning is at the center of every decision considered by the WPS.
Student learning is a shared responsibility among the school system, families, and the community.
In order to take their place in society, learners need to master both academic and social skills through the instruction and curriculum they receive.
Knowing how individuals learn—developmentally, socially, and culturally—drives instruction and curriculum.Learning is nurtured in safe, healthy, environmentally sensitive facilities.
Financial accountability and transparency are essential in utilizing the educational resources entrusted to WPS by the community.
