As an organization, we have developed a set of core values regarding our approach to education. We will manage our school, students, staff, and instruction based on these fundamental beliefs:
- All students can achieve greatness
- Education is a partnership with community, families, school faculty and local businesses
- The most productive environment to learn in is a safe, friendly, positive place
- Integrating the mind, body and spirit is essential for every student’s development
- Experiential learning is critical for development and growth
- Developing social-emotional skills is crucial to a well-rounded education
- Positive behaviors are best developed with positive and consistent supports
- We provide individual choices, value independent growth and encourage accountability for both our students and staff
- We value our diverse learners and diversity in our staff
- Academic growth will occur as we utilize data, individualize instruction, teach to strengths, and maintain open communication for areas of improvement
The learning environment should be a joyful place where every person is comfortable, safe, motivated and excited about one’s possibilities. Felicity staff encourage students to bring their individuality to each academic setting and embrace the specialized resources we provide. We believe this is a driving force for creating success and is reflected in our school’s name and daily practice.
