KATHLEEN MCNEELY SCHOOL MISSION STATEMENT

Working towards cooperation, caring, consideration in our community of learners.

BELIEF STATEMENTS

At McNeely School, we believe…

a)      in promoting a love and enthusiasm for learning

b)      that children should learn in a safe, supportive environment

c)      that every child is unique

d)      in the pursuit of personal excellence

e)      in the value of our community

f)      in the promotion of cooperation, participation and caring in our everchanging world

The primary function of the school is to facilitate student learning.  If it is to achieve this purpose, the school must decide what learning experiences it is to provide and how it will provide those experiences.

Our school community includes all of our students, their parents and other family members, our entire staff, all visitors to the school and of course, the people that live and work in our neighbourhood.

As members of this community, it is expected and understood that we will conduct ourselves in a socially responsible manner at all times in our actions, deeds, and dealings with others. There are four main components that make up our socially responsible behavior.  They are listed below.

                Solving Problems Amicably

                Being Helpful, Kind and Friendly

                Accepting All Others

                Respecting that we all have rights and responsibilities

All members of the McNeely Community should model these socially responsible behaviors and encourage those that may need reminders to do so as well.
