Who We Are
Sandra Cisneros Elementary is one of the 15 Acero Schools. The school has a specific mission and vision that aligns directly with the Acero Schools' mission and vision. The Acero Schools' Values are intentionally a component of Cisneros. You can find them in the school's House System. Each House is named after one of the Acero values. These connections are important. And, we believe that the school is the single greatest unit of change for our students. Because of that, the Cisneros mission and vision drive our work.
