Philosophy

At Potter Thomas Promise Academy, we believe that effective instruction that is standards driven, differentiated and rigorous, provided by highly qualified and dedicated educators is necessary for the success of all of our students.  The strategic integration of research-based strategies and resources as outlined in the PA Common Core is the key to academic achievement.  We believe that students must “respect self, respect others and respect the school” in order to maintain an educational environment that is conducive to learning. It is the obligation of the staff members of Potter Thomas Promise Academy to meet the academic, social, and emotional needs of our students and their families by any means necessary.
