  • School and Instructional Leadership: Each student's needs are met in schools led by high quality and effective educators.
  • Family and Community Engagement: Each student attends a school that authentically engages with families, communities, and libraries.
  • Safe and Supported Students: Each student learns in an environment that promotes social, emotional, and physical well-being and removes barriers to learning.
  • Meaningful Relationships with Students: Each student has meaningful connections with at least one adult in their school.[2]
 ”
