The teachers, staff, and students at Kendall Demonstration Elementary
School (KDES) and MSSD are working together to create a learning community
in which individuals care about others and treat them with respect and
fairness. Adults strive to model the behaviors of trustworthiness, respect,
responsibility, fairness, caring, and integrity so that children learn
and practice these behaviors. Students are encouraged to learn decision-making
and problem-solving skills and to learn how to resolve conflicts among
themselves. The goal is to create a safe, orderly school where children
and adults are free to learn and develop a positive set of attitudes
and values.
