Description Vision Statement The Frederick H. Tuttle Middle School is a collaborative student-centered community in which each individual is encouraged, supported and academically challenged to become an active, life-long learner and a responsible member of their community. Beliefs We believe that... • All people have value. • All people have unlimited potential to learn and that they learn at different rates and in different ways. • High expectations challenge all people to higher levels of performance. • Every individual is entitled to the privileges of a democratic society and shares responsibility for improving that society. • Continual learning improves the quality of life. • The acceptance of individual differences enriches our democratic society. • Educators, parents, students and community members share the responsibility for education; individuals are responsible for their own learning. • Love, trust, and honesty are essential to the emotional well being of everyone. • An individual's desire to learn is essential to learning.
