MISSION STATEMENT
To be a united voice of students, parents, school staff and community members positively advocating for the needs of all students in the Edmonds School District.
PRINCIPALS AND VALUES
We believe we have a unique opportunity to create and celebrate positive changes through positive advocacy and collaboration.
We believe in increasing access to disability services, special education information and support networks.
We believe all students deserve educational and social opportunities that presume competence and focus on the strengths and individual growth of the student in an inclusive environment to the maximum extent appropriate for each student.
We believe all students have a right to be educated in the least restrictive environment possible for them utilizing evidence based positive behavioral support strategies.
We believe behavioral support strategies should be used in such a way that they respect the dignity of the individual and are designed to support social emotional and behavioral growth.
