No Excuses University

Keeling Elementary is a No Excuses University.  This means that we are committed to helping every child prepare for a future that includes attending college if they so choose.

No Excuses means that we refuse to believe the excuses found in society for why children do not flourish academically, emotionally, and socially.

  • Race is NOT an excuse!
  • Gender is NOT an excuse!
  • Low socio-economic status is NOT an excuse!
  • Ethnicity is NOT an excuse!
  • Level of parent involvement is NOT an excuse!

 

We believe that EVERY child can and should make great gains each year, maximizing their potential.
