? Vibrant campus life: Value Schools students are encouraged to develop their interests in a wide variety of areas. Opportunities for enrichment, physical activity, leadership and service are provided on every Value Schools campus.

? Student-centered curriculum using research-based materials: A standards-based curriculum focuses on what students know, not what teachers teach. Student-focused learning ensures teachers provide learning activities and tasks suited to individual needs.

? Dedicated and enthusiastic parents: Our parents are an integral part of our campus life. Through their involvement, parents develop an extended community that enriches not only the life of the school, but the lives of families as well.

As educators we will respect and honor the diversity of all persons. Honoring each person?s culture, backgrounds and gender identities by providing an equitable and inclusive education.

4. A safe, nurturing community: In a community, everyone belongs and feels valued by the others. In community, each feels secure and is supported in efforts to grow and thrive. in every way. A safe community is created by respecting each other’s diversity. We strive as educators to ensure that all students feel valued, this will allow them to succeed in all classroom spaces.
