• All students will learn when engaged in and enthusiastic about their work. 
• The learning environment must be positive, supportive, nurturing and safe.
• All students need adult advocates. 
• All individuals must have a commitment to quality in the services they provide to students and to each other. 
• Collaboration among the School District, home and community is vital to the success of all students.
