Our mission is to create and sustain a educational environment that allows all students the opportunity to realize their maximum learning potential. Our vision is committed to cultivating and sustaining quality programs that meet the needs of individual learners; fostering visionary leadership; and developing lifelong learners who will have a positive impact on society.

 

Mars Area School District has always been associated with forward thinking, quality consciousness, and high educational standards. Our District has three elementary schools, a middle school and a high school. Enrollment (K-12) in our five school buildings is approximately 3,600 students and growing.

 

Our quality schools are staffed with experienced and caring professionals who join in offering a remarkably varied curriculum and who are committed to providing students with a valuable educational experience. In recent years, our District has integrated new technology at all of our schools, offering students even more opportunities to learn both inside and outside the classroom.

 

Despite our continued growth, our District remains small enough to offer personalized attention and large enough to provide broad experiences. Our residents enjoy fresh country air as well as the amenities of a large urban setting within a short drive. Our residents support the educational life in our schools, not only with their tax dollars, but also with their generous volunteer work in our schools as well as numerous support and booster organizations.

 

The school-community partnership, the experienced professional staff, the continuously updated facilities and a fiscally responsible School Board and Administration team up to make Mars Area School District a quality education institution.
