Guiding Principles

These are the principles that guide our misson at M.C. Perry Elementary School:

School Community - Our school community consists of students, staff members, parents, and military and civilian community members.

Empower Students - Students are provided with the skills and knoweldge needed to meet individual excellence. Teachers will incorporate standards-based instruction and differentiate methods to meet the individual needs of students. Students will exhibit responsible learning behaviors based on the eight pillars of character. The community will provide support by taking an active role in student learning.

Excellence in Scholarship - All students are expected and encouraged to achieve their personal best in academics. Teachers hold students to high standards of learning. Academic excellence is reinforced and praised in honor roll assemblies, displays of student work, and academic competitions. The community is informed of student achievements via school newsletters, the intranet, the school news channel, district-wide publications, local media, and community displays.

Excellence in Character - Our community promotes ethical decision-making; all community members are expected to make choices that are good, right and proper. Community members are guided by the eight principles of good character: integrity, courage, trustworthiness, responsibility, caring, respect, fairness, and citizenship. These principles are reinforced in the school calendar and newsletters. Good character is recognized through classroom rewards and recognition, Student of the Month events, and at schoolwide assemblies.

Excellence in Citizenship - Our community promotes good citizenship. All community members are expected to obey laws and rules, do their share to improve the community, cooperate, and act responsibly toward others and the environment. Our students and faculty work in cooperative learning groups. Our students are exposed to a diverse community through character education, guidance groups, conflict resolution, interpersonal relationships, extracurricular activities, host nation classes, field trips, and the student council.

Independent Learners - Students are given the knowledge and skills needed to act and think for themselves. Students are taught to develop their own questions and find answers. Teachers differentiate instruction in order to support and encourage a variety of learning styles and strategies.

Life-long Learners - Our community supports life-long learning for all community members by providing skills and knowledge that extend beyond the classroom. Teachers help students to learn core, standards-based knowledge, and provide opportunities for student-driven, inquiry-based learning. All community members are invited to continue life-long learning through professional development, extracurricular activities, and classes offered by the school.
