3 Mission Statement, Character Principles, and Biblical Worldview [Stalu Middle School] Location: Dovel Hollow, Virginia School Population: 413 Mission Statement: The goal of Stalu Middle School is to create a learning environment that is stimulating, empowering, and supportive of student progress. Character Principles Caring: Students demonstrate a concern for the welfare of others by demonstrating compassion for those in pain or need by providing assistance in the form of donations and/or personal service. Students understand that caring, including the virtues of compassion, kindness, benevolence, altruism, charity, generosity, and sharing, is the heart of ethics. Citizenship: Students demonstrate proper citizenship by fulfilling their civic and social responsibilities and by making contributions to the welfare of the communities they are a part of (including their home, school, neighborhood, country, and the larger globe). Respect: In order to create and maintain a positive learning environment, respect is a crucial core element. Respect creates an environment conducive to the growth of trust and knowledge. Fairness: Students strive to act in a fair and just manner at all times. Students who act honestly follow the rules. They share and alternate. Being honest entails having an open mind and the capacity to pay attention to other people. They no longer take advantage of or casually assign blame to others. They treat all people equally. Trustworthiness: Students develop and exhibit their capacity for trustworthiness. They recognize that trust is a key component of successful academic and professional outcomes as well as meaningful and long-lasting relationships, and they work to win others' confidence by exemplifying the moral values of integrity, honesty, keeping one's word, and loyalty. Self-Respect: Knowing your worth and expecting to be treated with

4 respect and decency in accordance is a sign of self- respect. Self-respect enables people to regard and view you with respect. Responsibility: Students who take charge of their own life and acknowledge that they have the power to select their thoughts, words, and actions—as well as their attitudes and ways of thinking—demonstrate the quality of responsibility. They also accept responsibility for the results of their decisions. Courage: Teachers that set a good example, take risks, own their mistakes, exhibit courage, and keep a positive attitude are the best role models for their students. It's a way for educators to inspire students to find their inner strength and act courageously.
