Core Beliefs
- At Crestview, students are not ‘your students’ or ‘my students,’ they are ALL our students.
- Education is about more than teaching reading, writing, and math. It includes other things such as arts, social skills, and developing a student’s character.
- All children have the ability to learn, but they do not all learn the same way
- ‘Equity’ does not mean treating all children the same … It means giving each child what they need to be successful.
- It is essential to preserve a child’s dignity, even when managing inappropriate behavior.
- When it comes to working successfully with individual student needs, the most important and indispensable factor is having a team who has the “right stuff.”
