The Board of School Trustees endorses the belief that all students are entitled to the opportunity for quality educational services which will enable students to develop full potential to function as individuals and as citizens in a democratic society. The educational services shall be provided efficiently, effectively, and conducted in a sensitive and disciplined environment. Further, they shall be implemented at a cost in keeping with the best principles of fiscal responsibility and with full accountability to the taxpayer.

The Board also endorses the belief that well educated students provide the foundation essential to a democratic society. The intelligent functioning of that society depends largely upon an adequate, capable citizenry. It is, therefore, vital that students acquire knowledge, learn how to apply knowledge to resolve problems, and develop not only positive attitudes about themselves but also respect for the rights of others. The Board further endorses the belief that, through programs and services provided, schools play a primary role in developing these qualities and characteristics.
