Riverview Elementary School Preschool

1. Every child can learn. Every child is a person, regardless of their behavior, attitude, or ability, they deserve to be loved and taught with high expectations in a safe environment.

2. Discomfort (mentally) in a problem-solving situation is essential to real learning. Students and teachers have to be taught skills and processes for problem solving and given regular, daily opportunities to collaboratively problem solve.

3. It takes a village to raise a child. Positive and productive relationships among the village are essential. A child and his caregivers benefit from a shared responsibility for developing a child (student). A high level of structured interdependence with a shared common vision results in a collaborative culture and a positive, trusting climate.

4. Great organizations remain in continuous a state of improvement and maintain a genuine love for learning. These organizations are always challenging the process and require a working plan that includes tangible goals and actions.

5. Where there is a will there is a way – Anything is possible. Children, staff, and parents can and will rise up to very high expectations with consistent encouragement, support, and skill training & coaching.

6. Quality Matters. Work to exceed expectation whenever possible. Whether its daily classroom instruction, a conversation with a parent, or a student celebration, does our approach reflect what we would desire for our own personal children?

7. Perception is Reality. Customer service is as important as the product.
