An effective school connects classrooms and resources to enrich the learning climate. And an effective school connects learning to life, to build character. The school is a community of learning where staff, students, teachers, administrators, and parents share in the learning process. The classroom is the core of the community centered on the development of children. It is a purposeful, communicative, disciplined, caring, and celebrative place.
Teachers are school leaders who work as a team and serve as mentors to their students.
They have authority in making curricular and instructional decisions and work with the principal as the lead teacher. Parents are the child's first and most essential teachers. The home-school partnership is cultivated with parents participating knowledgeably as partners in school affairs and their children's education. District curriculum is taught within the framework of the Basic Schools Program. The tools of mathematics, reading, writing, speaking, listening, and the arts are combined with a core of essential knowledge to develop and foster every child's confident use of language and ability to communicate ideas.
