Twain's mission is to build a positive school environment to meet the
needs of each student by providing opportunities to develop academic and

school goals are to provide a safe environment for students and staff,
to instill an eagerness on the part of students to attend school, to
provide student programs which respond to cultural and ethnic diversity,
and to have good communication between students, parents and teachers.
