Augusta County School Districts

• AUGUSTA CO PBLC SCHS

  
  

  The Augusta County Public Schools believe that education is a continuous developmental process. The schools share responsibility for that process with the home, the church and the community. We believe that all educational programs under the direction of the division must be related to the larger community which it serves. The continuous developmental process involves the creation of communication skills and a disciplined system of thought and problem solving. It involves the cultivation of an inquiring mind, the desire for knowledge, the respect for learning and rational attitudes toward learning and change. It further involves the adoption of values which hold that each individual has merit among all men and that we provide the opportunity for each child to develop to the greatest possible extent a positive view of himself and his fellow man. We further believe our schools should provide the opportunity for each individual to become a responsible, trustworthy, compassionate member of our society who contributes to the social, political, ecological, economic, cultural and spiritual advancement of mankind according to his own individual abilities. This includes sensitivity to individual differences such as disability, culture, religion, and gender. The Augusta County School Division subscribes to continuous progress and a sequentially developed approach in acquiring basic academic and vocational skills, competencies and attitudes, preparing students for further education and/or the world of work. The division supports a positive teacher-pupil-parent relationship as important to the enhancement of the learning process with adequate and varied materials, instructional strategies and resources for extending the individual's potential for learning.
