rather than activities and intentions.
Contributions - We will invite and welcome the contributions of
every member and listen to each other.
Decision-Making - We recognize that in a collaborative
culture, various decisions are best made at the different levels
of leadership within our district and buildings according to the
specific context and circumstance of the issue.
Communication - We operate in a collegial and friendly
atmosphere.
Collaboration - We work in a high-trust, yet demanding
culture. We view disagreement as a normal part of change and
are able to value and work through differences.
