Description
To provide innovative solutions to critical problems in education and human services by holding firmly to the belief that every child has the right to be in school. This belief has led to a continuum of services designed to meet the educational and social-emotional needs of the broad range of students. With a 'no refusal, no suspension, no expulsion' policy, students are provided the services that they need, when they need them, regardless of their behavior. The goal is to ensure that each of our students becomes college-ready, career-ready, and citizenship-ready.
