At Henry J. Kalfas Magnet School…

We will be child centered and with the support of families effectively communicate high expectations for students and staff. 

We will create an instructional environment that has realistic measurable goals and utilizes approaches that are developmentally appropriate and differentiated to meet the needs of every student.  

We will foster an environment that is physically, intellectually and emotionally safe. 

We will with the support of family and mentors develop learners that are self-disciplined, engaged and respectful to others.  

We will build positive relationships, demonstrate respect and work together toward common goals through effective communication with co-workers, students, parents and the community. 

We will remain positive, approachable, supportive, visibly present and involved.
