The Board believes that change requires support and input of those concerned, and is working hard to put the consultative and collaborative processes in place that achieve this outcome both within the organization and the community. The Board values its professional and support staff and believes that both groups make a significant contribution to the well being and education of learners. The Board also values, and will work to enhance, its partnerships with students, parents, agencies, and service providers. It is through effective partnerships that we will be able to prepare our students for the future, to deal with diversity and change, to build mutually supportive relationships, and to enhance a quality educational system that focuses on lifelong learning and opportunities for all.
