Learning Communities of Inquiry and Action

We will engage in learning communities in which reflection, collaboration, lifelong learning, and habits of mind are developed and nurtured.

Focus on Students

We will balance knowledge and the principles and concepts delineated in professional and state standards with an appreciation of all students' individuality, diversity, and cultures.

Exemplary Professional Practices

We will demonstrate the knowledge, skills and dispositions of exemplary professionals. We will have strong competence in our content knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge and skills as delineated in professional, state, and institutional standards. We will demonstrate professional dispositions or standards of conduct, will be supportive of students, families, and the school and community and will serve as catalysts for positive and responsible change.
