The district's motto of Lead - Innovate - Serve is visible in all aspects of school and life.

Mount Airy Middle School has been labeled a Schools to Watch since 2013 and Mount Airy High School is a National Blue Ribbon School for 2011.

This represents the dedication of staff members to do what is best for students.
