Once again, Colville High School exemplifies both principles. They work together as colleagues who share a common commitment to the needs of young people. This is illustrated most clearly in weekly staff meetings in which everyone shares vital information about students who need attention. Support teams are formed to see that appropriate action is taken as quickly as possible. Every student is surrounded by adults with meaningful authority and genuine concern.
Fair Schools are places where students are given a chance to show off their good work.
Any casual observer on Parent's Night, for example, will enjoy a panoramic view of children's work in the classrooms and hallways. In both schools, teachers display as much student work as the wall will hold. Opportunities for students to display their talent vary with subject area, age, and the focus of the school. Young musicians, thespians, and graphic artists naturally enjoy sharing their artistic inclinations. Some schools promote science fairs, and others encourage students to take the products of their vocational courses to local county fairs.
