    Vision

       • We believe expectations should be high for all students and staff and that
         a variety of strategies, experiences, technologies, and assessments are
         needed to encourage all children to develop skills necessary for lifelong
         learning. All students deserve adults who acknowledge their gifts and
         talents, have high expectations for each individual student, who are
         respectful and take time to get to know each student, who demonstrate a
         positive, personal connection with each one so that a trusting
         relationship is established, who respect differences and nurture
         understanding of their cultures, and who recognize differences in
         learning styles and help students learn in as many different ways as
         possible. All students have the right to many opportunities so that they
         can experience the world and become productive citizens in the global
         economy.
