 * __Belief Statement:__**


 * We believe...** __all__ children possess individual strengths and weaknesses, and, as vital members of our society are entitled to participate in an inclusive educational community in which individual, as well as collective needs are met through intentional, active learning environments supported by research-based instructional techniques and methods.


 * We believe...** teachers are responsible to respond to classroom diversity through careful & intentional collaboration, planning & reflection, and design curricula based on sound, research-based pedagogy, instituting instructional techniques & methods that seek to reach multiple identities, learning styles & personal characteristics in a welcoming learning environment committed to the common human denominator.


 * We believe...** schools must conscientiously and actively promote the education of all children by creating & maintaining inclusive learning environments through professional continuing teacher education, research & healthy debate, peer collaboration, curriculum updating & modifications, confidentiality, respect for others, as well as classroom & teacher support services, character education & conflict resolution.


 * We believe...** in the fundamental value of families in the lives of our students, teachers, schools, communities, and the power of school-family communication, collaboration & participation.
