· We value cooperation because we believe everyone can accomplish more and create a
more satisfying learning environment if everyone works together.
· We value collaboration because when everyone’s ideas, thoughts and
feelings are heard and considered the whole is greater than the sum of
its parts
· We value communication that is frequent, open and honest because it
builds trust which is basic to good relationships so essential to high
quality learning environments.
· We value humility because we know that the best teachers are also the
best learners and we know that each one of us stands on other’s shoulders.
· We value our humanity and our need to treat each other with compassion,
care and consideration because our children learn as much by our actions
as by our words.
· We value humor because it helps us not to take ourselves too seriously
and helps us take the long, broad view which is usually the best one.
