    Our 2023-2024 CORE Values

    A high performing culture is based on core values.  Core values undergird the culture and priorities.  They are not only statements of what we believe or value, but they guide actual behavior and the prioritization of decisions and actions.   When competing interests suggest different courses of action, it is the adherence to our core vales that should weigh heavily in the final decision.

    • Core Value #1: All students can learn and reach his or her potential.
    • Core Value #2: Effective teachers make the most difference in the student academic performance.
    • Core Value #3:  For every child to succeed, we must hold students and ourselves to high expectations.
    • Core Value #4:  We value parent engagement and community support.
    • Core Value #5:  We rely on clearly defined outcomes to guide our work and to which we hold ourselves accountable.
    • Core Value #6:  We value equity and commit to reducing inequities in inherent in the education system.
