Families and communities expect a school to put the child at the center and focus of everything it does and to respect every child and family.

At a Partnership School:

• Each child and family are treated special and included in a "family-like environment".
• Goals are developed that focus on building relationships that promote success for every child.
• Children are the responsibility of families, schools, and communiteis.
  
• Parent involvement is enhanced through communication, volunteering, learning at home, and decision-making opportunities.
