An orderly, safe, and positive environment is vital for all members of our school and community to feel welcome and secure.

the welfare of our community is dependent on how functional and adaptive all of our students become.

Open and effective lines of communication will be established and maintained between students, staff members, parents, and community members.

Extra-curricular activities will allow for growth and development of the student outside of the classroom setting.

All members of our school community will focus on the intellectual, physical, emotional, and social growth and development of students.
