"It
is the intent of the Washington-Caldwell School District to empower
each student with the attitudes, knowledge, and skills for becoming a
life-long learner by providing an environment that values respect and
cooperation, encourages curiosity, and promotes creative and critical
thinking through challenging activities. The District will provide these
opportunities within a conservative small-school environment keeping
class sizes low whenever possible and providing personalized attention
by instructors and staff."
