The core beliefs of the North Hills School District are stated as we statements because they collectively drive our Strategic Plan and our daily decisions and actions. Schools will provide opportunities for all students to maximize their potential to become life-long learners. The learning process will include the intellectual, physical, social and emotional development necessary for students to help them function effectively in the present and the future. High expectations realistically challenge students and a support system enables students to reach these expectations.
All students have the right to learn in an environment that is both emotionally and physically safe.
An exemplary school system is continually reflecting on and evaluating its curriculum, instruction, and assessment to ensure high academic standards. An excellent well-trained staff needs to continually grow professionally and be supported by the total educational system. Staff development programs will be aligned with district goals and initiatives. Classroom instruction will be driven by valued research and best practice as acknowledged and advanced by a broad range of educational and professional organizations. An employee atmosphere that recognizes contributions and encourages and rewards outstanding performance will be fostered.
