School districts use a Mission Statement (i.e. Purpose Statement) to describe their founding purpose and major organizational commitments. A Vision Statement (i.e Direction Statement) describes what the school hopes to achieve in the future if they successfully fulfill their organizational purpose or mission.
A school's Mission Statement indicates the priorities and goals of a school community, and can have an incredible impact on student achievement. Its Vision Statement deals with future accomplishments or the ultimate goals of the district.
Gordon-Rushville Public Schools' current Mission Statement is "Gordon-Rushville Public Schools is committed to developing well-rounded leaders and lifelong learners.  We share a vision of creating a system that enables every student in our diverse community to meet or exceed rigorous standards for academic performance."  
The school's current Vision Statement is " At Gordon-Rushville Public Schools we strive to provide a safe environment where every student can be a lifelong, productive and successful learner."
