All students should be provided with an education in the development of cognitive skills, affective skills, self-awareness, self-esteem, physical well-being, and socially acceptable decision-making strategies.
We believe that a positive and caring environment will perpetuate successful experiences and enhance each student's future development as an adult.
We recognize the importance of addressing the inter-relationships between home, school, and community in order to enhance students' total development. Community and parental input are sought when determining educational placement within a wide range of programs designed to meet varied disabilities and learning styles of students.
Finally, through instruction in independence, responsibility, competency, and vocational/career awareness, special education students should develop into productive individuals in our society. This life-long objective should be reached through early identification, ongoing intervention, and relevant academic/social development.
