The School System believes that most important concept of education, which remains eternally steadfast, is the acquisition and application of knowledge.

We accept the opportunity, within the bounds of this school system, to assist all students to meet their needs, solve their problems, and extend their interests. We desire to assist all students to develop an understanding of, and respect for, the integrity, opinions, and ambitions of others as they come into contact with their own. We believe that equal educational opportunity is the right of all children without regard to race, creed, color, or natural origin. It lies neither within our ability nor our desire to substitute for or supplant the guidance, motivation, and love of the student's family.

We believe that the educational process should develop a feeling of self-worth and accomplishment. This is best achieved when students become involved in learning experiences meaningful to their lives in today's world.

We further believe education should develop habits, attitudes, understanding, and the basic skills necessary for a productive, self-actualizing life in a democratic society. Each child should be helped to understand the duties and privileges of responsible citizenship as it relates to him or her as an individual and to the world community. We request the advice and support of the citizens of the community and especially the professional staff as we endeavor to develop the attitudes and abilities demanded in this age of rapid change.
