Our School

School Vision Statement:

educational success and social, emotional, and physical development of all students.

School Mission Statement:  At Gordon Bush Alternative Center our mission is to build a safe, nurturing, and respectful environment that maximizes the wellness of the whole student and equips them with skills for lifelong learning.

All school staff will be highly qualified and caring instructors who are attentive to the educational, cultural and physical needs of students and the Wyvetter Younge Alternative Center community.
