Core Values, Beliefs, and Learning Expectations: NEASC Standards
Effective schools identify core values and beliefs about learning that function as explicit foundational commitments to students and the community. Decision-making remains focused on and aligned with these critical commitments. Core values and beliefs manifest themselves in research-based, school-wide 21st century learning expectations. Every component of the school is driven by the core values and beliefs and supports all students’ achievement of the school’s learning expectations.
- The school community engages in a dynamic, collaborative, and inclusive process informed by current research-based best practices to identify and commit to its core values and beliefs about learning.
-
The school has challenging and measurable 21st century learning expectations for all
students which address academic, social, and civic competencies, and are defined by
school-wide analytic rubrics that identify targeted high levels of achievement.
-
The school’s core values, beliefs, and 21st century learning expectations are actively
reflected in the culture of the school, drive curriculum, instruction, and assessment in
every classroom, and guide the school’s policies, procedures, decisions, and resource
allocations.
-
The school regularly reviews and revises its core values, beliefs, and 21st century learning expectations based on research, multiple data sources, as well as district and school community priorities.
