We believe that student achievement and growth are maximized when:

• The school focuses its energies on continuous improvement through a continuum of services.
• Personal growth of all students is maximized through the development of independence and self-advocacy.
• Both rigor and support are infused throughout student programs and staff development.
• Data and best practices drive decision making throughout the school community.
• Innovation and creativity are promoted and supported.
• The school provides a safe and inviting learning environment.
• Diversity is honored as an asset.
