I believe in the definition of listening, according to my favorite author, Rosalind Wiseman: "Listening means being willing to be changed by what you hear.”

Mission Statement - “Quality School Bill of Rights”

I strive to cultivate a school environment that prioritizes the following attributes:

  1. The school feels like home. 

  2. There is an open door at all times with school leadership.

  3. Your child is known and appreciated by everyone, not just their homeroom teachers. 

  4. The caring and respect are palpable.

  5. Diversity is valued and celebrated.

  6. Meaningful work is valued over “busy work.”

  7. Students can make meaningful choices about their learning.

  8. Everyone in the school is focused on continuous growth.

  9. The school is an upbeat but professional environment.

  10. Your child’s best interest is at the heart of every decision the school makes.
