CEC-6 Strongly believes in advocating for policies that provide every student with a quality public education.
CEC 6 is responsible for advocating for policies that enable CSD 6 schools, grades kindergarten to 8th grade, to provide every student with a quality public education with a strong foundation rooted in child-centered teaching and learning practices.
A quality public education is the right of every student regardless of gender, race, socio-economic status, immigration status or circumstances. Public schools are where students have the opportunity to learn from highly qualified teachers and from one another while being exposed to the diversity of human experiences including cultures, languages, learning differences, different abilities, socio-economic backgrounds, gender, religion and sexual orientation.
CEC 6 will work to support a whole-child education, where every student has access to a quality education full of enriching experiences that maximize his or her potential and provide opportunities to nurture talents not measured by standardized testing. Whole child education includes a curriculum that is responsive to students learning styles, inspires learning and creatively, and allows time and room for innovation. It is also conducive to a positive learning environment that promotes the social, emotional, physical and intellectual development of every child.
