  • DoDEA Mission
  • School Vision
  • Goal 1
  • Goal 2
  • CSI

DoDEA's Mission is to provide an exemplary education that inspires and prepares all DoDEA students for success in a dynamic, global environment.



The vision of Rainbow Elementary School is that Rainbow students will have the opportunity to learn & grow as they develop into lifelong learners. Knowledge is Gold!

  • Growth — demonstrate the ability to think creatively and to solve problems

  • Opportunity — expand personal, social, and intellectual achievement

  • Learning — exhibit ability to adapt to future changes and challenges

  • Development — create a desire for continued study as a life-long learner



By 2011, all students will improve the quality of their reading in all subject areas as measured by Terra Nova 3rd Edition, and local assessments including the STAR and SRI.



By 2011, all students will improve their mathematical communication across the curriculum by gaining conceptual knowledge through the use of nonlinguistic representation while learning as measured by Terra Nova 3rd Edition, and local assessments.



The DoDEA Community Strategic Plan Goal (Amended June 2009) is that the percentage of students scoring in the top quartile on the TerraNova™ Exam, Third Edition, will increase from year to year, while the percentage of the students scoring in the lower quartile will decrease.
