Mrs. Smith's Class

Mission Statement

I believe that each student is valued as an individual with unique physical, social, emotional and intellectual needs.  In order for me to achieve my mission, I need to join with the parents and community to assist the students in developing skills.  These skills will help them become independent and self-sufficient adults, who can succeed and contribute responsibly in the community.  At the same time, I will be committed to enhance their self-esteem and confidence in a safe learning environment.



I cannot learn to decide...if you make my decisions.  I cannot learn to be myself...if you tell me what to be.  Let me choose what I must learn.  Lucy Powell  "How One Might Teach"
