West Hempstead Union Free School District seeks to preserve the safety and security of the school community, to promote an effective teaching-learning situation within the classroom, and to promote student self-discipline and an appreciation of democratic due process. Special Education Class program offers opportunities for students requiring special approaches to learning and provides for the students and parents participation in determining his/her individual educational program. Through community effort the staff and teachers endeavors to provide a safe and caring learning environment for each and every student.

The West Hempstead Union Free School District Technology plan is used as a tool to further student achievement. District committees are actively involved in the identification of technology tools and supporting software and age appropriate materials, which promote and facilitate content instruction aimed at improving instruction for all students. With content instruction as a goal, new instructionally related technologies will be identified, purchased, and installed in classrooms and media centers based on instructional priorities identified by the shared decision making teams, curriculum planners, the ITEC Committee and professional staff.
