Vision

The North East Board of School Directors is dedicated to making a genuine difference in the gains in educational achievement of the students of the district. We intend to provide leadership in supporting more graduates who are able and ready to advance successfully beyond our schools. In doing this, we are committed to a non-threatening culture in our system where all educational stakeholders are comfortable talking together without fear because student learning is the most important issue. We want staff to be well trained and measures of student achievement to reflect continuous trends of improvement. We want parents and students to be involved and informed in the student achievement issues.

 

Philosophy

The North East Board of School Directors believes the manner in which they can function as a leadership team is to work together to carry out the strategic plan and our vision. We will strive to discuss and solve issues on their merits, thereby creating an atmosphere where everyone trusts that any issue can be discussed without fear. Mistakes are treated as lessons.
