PRIDE
DUTY |
|
Perform – As a student I recognize that
I should take all efforts to perform up to and beyond my potential |
|
Respect – I understand that I need to
respect my fellow students as well as the adults and staff in the school
& community building – “Mr., Ms., Mrs.” |
|
Integrity – Throughout the situations I
find myself in high school, I know that I need to act appropriately, not
allowing profanity or poor actions reflect upon who I am |
|
Determination – I know that my
education is the key to my future. No one can take that away from me, I
have to be present and on time to acquire what I need |
|
Excellence – In all activities in which
I participate in and outside of the classroom, I am afforded with
opportunities to demonstrate my ability |
| |
|
Determined to Teach All |
|
Utilize All Means |
|
Teach as if they were our own |
|
Yield to Student Need |
