Core Values

To carry out our mission, we offer exceptional programming and tailored support services, centered on the following core values:

  • We are STUDENT-CENTERED. Our students are fundamental to all that we do, so every decision and action contributes to our students’ learning experiences.
  • We are SERVICE-ORIENTED. We provide exceptional service for our students, clients, and each other.
  • We are QUALITY-DRIVEN. Students learn best when they are engaged, challenged, and supported, and we seek to provide an optimal combination of those factors throughout all our program offerings.
  • We are INNOVATIVE. We constantly search for the most effective ways to serve and engage our unique student populations and to do so, we encourage forward- thinking, creativity, and initiative.
