Culturally Responsive Practices

Evaluate how we promote the creation of conditions, produce resources and tools, and support multiple stakeholders in the on-going refinement of an educational system that is responsive to cultural diversity. -
Partnership with Others
As we enhance the quality of our programs, we need to actively pursue the involvement of family members, local community, higher education and other agencies to form potential relationships. Develop mutual relationships with other agencies and provide opportunities for student to perform or work with other schools or agencies.
