School Overview

Greetings All, As the proud principal of Eugene Field, I am extremely honored to share important information that gives insight as to who we are as a school community. Eugene Field’s mission is centered around providing a high quality, culturally responsive education to support our students in a 21st century society. Our “North Star” of where we want to go, resides in our vision of “personalizing learning experiences for EVERY student to empower them to be successful” which aligns with our District’s vision, “Success Starts Here”. To this point, I’ll provide a glimpse into our curriculum, programming and partnerships. As we continue to evolve within CPS, it is our hope that we bring engaging programming and learning experiences that are equitable, rigorous and joyful for all of our students. As we focus on providing equitable, rigorous learning experiences, we know this cannot be done without a high-quality curriculum. To this end, we have adopted the Skyline curriculum. We utilize Skyline for ELA, Math, Science and Social Studies. We have three full time holistic teachers–P.E., Music, and Computer Science. Due to the size of our school, these full-time teachers are also able to support our students in other content area classes as well as provide MTSS Tier I and Tier II support, where needed. Our classroom sizes are typically smaller than the average school (most classes have less than 25 students), with no class exceeding 30 students. We expect students to experience high expectations for themselves and others when it comes to engaging in learning content. We expect students to experience both success and failure, as both are needed for growth. We expect our instructional staff to differentiate learning to meet students where they are, yet progress students towards and beyond grade level proficiency. With the District continuing to provide equitable funding and resources for our students, full engagement and positive support from all stakeholders, our students will continue to thrive and make the world a better place.
