About DREW CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT

Description provided by the district or community — not part of the NCES dataset.

Drew Central is dedicated to the educational success and well being of all students our district services. We believe that democracy is a way of life as well as a form of government. We also believe that democracy is the best form of government with a basic need of any democratic community as a politically literate citizenry. Because of this conviction, we feel that the foundation of our educational program is to develop the cultivation of democratic ideas which necessitates a stressing of the individual, as well as responsibility and social awareness accompanied by respect for the abilities and consideration of the rights of others. Our educational program strives to develop in our young people the responsibilities that the democratic system requires of citizens.
