Our beliefs are as follows: Each student is a valued individual with unique physical, social, emotional, and intellectual needs. Students' learning needs should be the primary focus of all decisions impacting the work of the school. A students' self-esteem is enhanced by positive relationships and mutual respect among and between students and staff. The school needs to function as a learning organization and promote opportunities for all those who have a stake in the success of the school to work together as a community of learners. Students need to not only demonstrate their understanding of essential knowledge and skills, but also need to be actively involved in solving problems and producing quality work.

We are a rural, small farming, agricultural based community that has grown into a small-town suburb of Auburn.

Both events bring a record number of festival visitors to the area annually.
