Craigslea State High School’s motto is “Striving For Excellence” in all aspects of school life. The school’s vision is for all members of the school community to be active citizens in a global society. On exit at the conclusion of year 12, the school’s aim is that students will be confident, self-directed and knowledgeable young people who think creatively and critically and are willing to participate in and shape community, economic and political life. They will be able to engage with compassion and tolerance with other cultures at home and abroad. The school’s values underpin its vision and have been developed through consultation with parents, students, teachers and community members.
Special features: The school’s Programs of Excellence – Excellence in Science, Signature Music, Craigslea Volleyball Academy – are supported through the allocation of a defined number of places. Places in the Program of Excellence are available to out-of-catchment enrolments once the demand for in-catchment enrolment has been met.
