All students can and will learn best in a safe, consistent, and positive environment that encourages risk-taking and values high expectations. Teachers should be prepared to adjust their teaching to meet the needs of all learners which involves differentiation, professional growth, and collaboration. Students need a nurturing school climate consisting of dedicated professionals to reach maturation academically, socially, mentally, and physically.
