Cape Elementary: Seahawk Sentinel

January 23, 2023

Cape's Mission & Vision

Mission: To provide a safe and supportive learning community where every student experiences success.


Vision: We believe that the most promising strategy for achieving the mission of Cape Elementary is to develop our capacity to function as a professional learning community.

HRS Level 1 Certification

Cape Elementary School achieved Level 1 certification in Marzano High Reliability Schools. We are pleased to announce the achievement of Level 1 certification in Marzano High Reliability Schools. Level 1 certification means Cape Elementary School has created a “Safe, Supportive, and Collaborative Culture,” which is the foundation for every level that follows. Without such a culture, student achievement will be compromised. Day-to-day school operations are addressed and evaluated in Level 1. The high reliability school (HRS) program was created by Marzano Resources to help transform schools into organizations that take proactive steps to ensure student success. Using a research-based five-level hierarchy, along with leading and lagging indicators, educators learn to assess, monitor, and confirm the effectiveness of their schools. This framework, based on 50 years of educational research and there are a total of five levels. Congratulations to our staff and students!
