Mission
Van Dyke Public Schools' mission is to continue to promote educational excellence and provide opportunities for all students to become contributing members of society. This will be accomplished by maintaining comprehensive programs that are responsive to an ever-changing world.

Vision
We see a student-centered school district that recognizes that children are its reason for being, where each child is valued and held in highest esteem, where individual differences and needs are understood, addressed, and respected. 

We see a proactive school district that welcomes the challenge to change, using research to continuously implement the best of what we know about how people learn, where every system decision is made to foster and enhance opportunities to refine lifelong learning skills, where learning is viewed as a community asset and everyone is actively committed to success, highest achievement, and quality performance for all. 

We see an exemplary school district where the learning environment is grounded in trust and cooperation, where what we do and how we do it is driven by our beliefs and vision and reflects what we know about the best in education. 

We see an allied community and school district that mutually support and enhance each other, expressing pride in accomplishments and encouraging growth and innovation. 

We see a collaborative community and school district that openly encourage and welcome partnerships for academic, social, and cultural endeavors. 

We see all stakeholders in the Van Dyke Schools as a dynamic "community of learners" that publicly affirms and demonstrates that the quest for excellence is a lifelong process.
