Sankofa Takes Flight!
Welcome to Sankofa School of Success at Arlington Woods Elementary School 99. We are a Jumpstart Campus within the Indianapolis Public Schools Innovation Network.
When it's all said and done, our students are prepared to be influential contributing members of their neighborhoods and communities.
Our Three Pillars
Sankofa School of Success is built upon three core foundational statements of purpose.
Transformational School Culture
When a school cultivates a healthy culture, its staff actively seek the knowledge, tools, and collaboration needed to achieve success for every student. This unites staff around a common purpose, and creates the momentum necessary for lasting transformation.
Collective Responsibility
It takes a village! Our teachers, staff, families and community partners are in this work to ensure that our children have support wrapping around them.
Content Experts
We intentionally provide professional development opportunities for our staff to grow and become the best. Taking care of our team is a major factor in moving the needle with our students and Sankofa's academic growth.
We Grow From Within.
If the Sankofa Mission and Vision align with your career goals, there are ample opportunities to grow both within the role along with scaling and expanding in breadth and depth through our intentional coaching models.
