Who are we?

At the Beresford School District, we take our mission statement, “Together, We Aspire, Act, and Achieve,” and our vision statement, “Creating Servant Leaders through Quality Academic and Activity Programs,” seriously as we strive toward our District goals in the four pillars of Academics / Achievement, Fine Arts, Athletics, and Servant Leadership / Distinguished Service.

The Beresford School District strives to provide a positive environment where all children can and will succeed.  Our children are the reason for our school’s existence and worthy of our best efforts.  We will continue to provide a positive school climate that focuses on building and sustaining relationships with our students, parents, and community.

The quality of our programs is directly related to dedicated people who give maximum effort to the children of our district.  We promote professional growth and life-long learning for our staff.  Our staff members understand that our students, parents, and community are the most important people we serve.  We believe we must continue to make connections and build relationships with our students, parents, and community.
