Lynden School District

The schools in our district are the direct reflection of the concerns and efforts of our citizens to provide all students a learning environment in which to grow and develop to the maximum of their abilities. Our educational programs should develop attitudes and skills to help students prepare for future careers with a commitment to life-long learning. We believe we should enable them to become contributing members of a Democratic society. We believe continuous professional growth for educators is essential. Educators who themselves are continuous learners exemplify the wonder and excitement of learning for their students. We believe that everyone in the learning process must be given dignity, courtesy and must be held accountable for his/her actions. We also recognize individual differences and will offer equal educational opportunities to all students regardless of race, religion, creed, sex or handicapping condition. We believe in a school community partnership that will create and maintain the best possible schools for our community. We believe in providing equitable services to all schools in terms of curriculum, supplies and materials, and certificated and classified staff. The curriculum, the instructional materials, and the teaching process will be the best possible that the district can provide.
