Arleta SchoolArleta School Mission/Vision Statement
The Arleta community honors its diversity. It builds partnerships within this community to enable all children to achieve academic standards and to become productive citizens.
We believe:
- All members of the Arleta community [students, staff, parents, neighbors, business and faith community] are learners.
- Home is the first and most important learning environment.
- All learners have the right to build self-esteem and a sense of belonging through academic, social and emotional success.
- Purposeful learning is learning which is valued by, and relevant to, the learners.
- Collaboration strengthens our diverse community of learners and increases our understandings beyond our personal experiences.
- All learners can understand their responsibilities, know their boundaries and be accountable for them.
- All learners have the right to experience and celebrate success in a nurturing environment that is safe, accepting and positive.
Because of our commitment to learning, Arleta staff have been trained and are aligning this plan to focus on the following Developmental Assets from the Search Institute:
- A caring school climate.
- Parent involvement in schooling.
- Positive peer influence.
- High expectations.
- Achievement motivation.
