BOARD POLICY 110

110         -     Educational Philosophy

The School District of Fort Atkinson exists for the purpose of providing the greatest possible opportunity for the educational growth of each child. The opportunity for growth is dependent upon two components: The quality of teaching and the environment for learning. The District is committed to employing qualified, well-trained, knowledgeable, and dedicated teachers to maintain a high level of instruction, and to providing a quality educational environment in the form of buildings, equipment, and instructional materials for children to use in acquiring knowledge.

This School District has responsibility to preserve the mutual respect which exists between the schools and community. The School District’s citizenship role is one that leads and reflects society. However, our continuing sense of pride in community effort and the quality of its people readily assist the fulfillment of this role.
