I. MISSION STATEMENT

• The level of a child's self esteem directly impacts ability to learn; therefore, each child must be helped to see his or her own worth in order to develop a positive strong sense of self.

• Each child can learn.
• Each child's needs should be the focus of teaching and learning.
• Each student should be motivated to develop a desire to learn and that learning is a lifelong process.
• Each child deserves a safe and secure learning environment and that each student has a responsibility to others as well as himself or herself.
• Each student has a responsibility to be tolerant of others and treat others with respect and dignity, developing this in greater depth over time.
• Education is an investment in society's future and should reflect the diversity of society.
• Each child needs academic, social, emotional and physical learning opportunities to develop into an independent, constructive, whole member of society (not being singularly skilled for a single job).
• The most efficient use of our resources in providing an excellent quality of education is essential.

• Bashaw School, in cooperation with Battle River Regional Division #31, will continue to focus on providing an educational program for all students, which incorporates the needs of individual students.
• In cooperation, staff and parents will encourage students to establish educational goals for themselves.
• Students and staff will work to achieve the highest academic standards for each individual student.
• Students and staff will undertake the educational process in a cooperative, safe, secure learning environment.
• All staff will continue to evolve as educators from a disseminator of information to facilitator of learning; from independent instructor to member of an educational team, working with colleagues, parents, and other community members to better serve the needs of students.
