Mission

The Carrillo School Family believes all students must be challenged through high expectations and rigorous academic standards. Working together as a learning community we provide every child with the tools necessary to meet the intellectual, social, emotional and physical challenges of the twenty-first century. We ensure equitable access to learning so that all children reach their true potential.


It is only through our daily demonstrations of respect that we truly celebrate our uniqueness as well as our diversity. In this way we become a community of learners, aware of each others’ strengths and needs. We supply the support and structure required for every student to succeed.


All members of the Carrillo School Community educate the whole child and provide a meaning centered curriculum that connects learning to the student’s world. Working as a team, we cooperate to ensure the optimum learning and growth for all students, and since each child learns in a different way and at a different rate, we are dedicated to celebrating every individual’s successful journey to a lifelong love of learning. We provide a positive and safe school experience wherein all Carrillo students develop pride in their community, who they are and confidence in all they do.


All staff members believe that every student is their student. We lead by example and follow the Carrillo Way: “Do the right thing, because it's the right thing to do, even when no one is looking.”
