Vision:

Learning is what we're all about. We pose a question to ourselves that helps us think about our mission and our goals: "How do we create learning communities for the greatest thinkers and most thoughtful people... for the world?"

A number of themes emerged from the roundtable discussions that took place during two Futures Conferences the district held in 1994. The conferences brought together community people, parents, administrators, students, and staff members to talk about the future of the West Linn-Wilsonville School District. From the discussions, some common vision themes emerged. The district envisions a school learning community which:

• Demonstrates personal and academic excellence;
• Provides a personalized education to improve student performance;
• Establishes community partnerships and expands the classroom beyond the school;
• Creates a circle of support for each student;
• Educates the whole person--intellectually, emotionally, physically, and ethically;
• Integrates technology in daily learning.
