Operating Principles are the core values and guiding behaviors that shape how we work, interact, and support one another at VITAL School. They serve as the foundation for a positive, inclusive, and effective learning environment. Our principles—Compassion, Flexibility, and Accountability—are essential because they reflect our commitment to meeting students where they are, adapting to their diverse needs, and taking responsibility for delivering a high-quality educational experience. These principles ensure that every student feels valued, supported, and empowered to succeed.
