Work together toward shared goals with two or more people
Select, analyze and reflect on resources to develop and improve solutions/strategies to guide decisions, behaviors, and actions

Multiple individuals at all levels demonstrate respect, trust, and integrity while working interdependently toward our goals.
Educators use effective instructional practices to actively engage students in diverse learning opportunities that require critical thinking and problem solving in real world contexts.
Students will acquire competencies necessary for 21st century living by developing skills in the areas of civic life, health, finance, technology and career readiness.
