VISION


We have a deep faith in the vision, idealism, courage and ability of young people to see the kind of world they want, and to work together to make that dream a reality.

We understand that the skills to be effective stewards of the future are gained by disciplined practice, and commit ourselves to designing and guiding that practice.

We believe that the lives of young people should be filled with joy and exuberance, and with a challenging engagement with the best ideas thus far invented.

Values

Community is vital - so we do our best to help, affirm and tolerate each other. We celebrate our differences and value each unique individual.
Work space and good tools are essential - so we clean up our own messes, take care of our tools and avoid waste.
Relationships are a source of joy and support - so we try honestly and directly to solve problems instead of complaining or gossiping about each other.
There is always more to know - so we are open-minded, ready to consider what we think we know, and to learn more from our own mistakes. We view being coached well as a gift.
Great accomplishment takes discipline and skill - so we take on personal challenge with humor and courage, seeing things through to completion.
We need safety, security and focus in our work place, and the respect of our community - so we exclude violence and intoxication.
We thrive better in a joyful atmosphere - so we play and laugh a lot, and maintain a perspective of lightness about our work together.

The Faculty,
Chamisa Mesa High School
