Staff Community Relations

Staff Community Relations

            Members of the professional staff shall be encouraged to take an active part in the affairs of the community. The school and the community should not be considered separate and apart, but as working as a unified whole in the educative progress. Through dynamic leadership, many avenues may be opened for building community support.

            The superintendent especially is urged to identify himself/herself personally with the many facets of community life, providing opportunities for all citizens—including nonparents—to experience relationships with the schools.

            The principal as the leader of his or her school is encouraged to be an active and leading member of the school community.

            The teacher, or the degree to which the teacher is known and accepted as a citizen of the community, has a direct relationship with the degree of understanding and goodwill flowing from the community to the schools.
