As principal, it is my moral obligation to foster a professional learning community at Central Falls High School: A University of Rhode Island Academy that encourages and promotes collegiality, dialogue, reflection, and collaboration around teaching and learning. It is also my obligation to provide a safe environment that engages and supports students in achieving proficiency through meaningful, rigorous, and diverse learning activities. Therefore, to the best of my ability...
I will:
• Encourage all students to do their best in school, to work hard, meet high expectations, develop his/her talents and cooperate with teachers, school staff, students and families;
• Have high expectations for students, teachers and staff.
• Come to school each day with a positive attitude about my faculty, students, their families and communities and expect the same of them.
• Communicate clearly and frequently so that all families understand the school’s programs and their children’s progress. I will create a climate in school where parents are welcome and have a voice in the educational process.
• Assist teachers, families, and students to understand and discuss school policies, report card grades and academic goals of the school.
• Actively support and try to be present at family engagement activities and encourage and support family involvement in student learning.
• Develop a comprehensive program of school, family and community partnerships at our school.
