I. District Philosophy



I.  District Philosophy
 
 

The Wayne Central School District believes that the goal of education is the all-around development of each student. The role of the school is to enable individuals to develop to their fullest potential.
 
T he school, in cooperation with the home and community, will assist the student with intellectual, social, cultural, emotional, physical and moral growth. The school should help create within each student an awareness of civic responsibilities and respect for authority to assist the student in becoming a well-integrated, responsible person capable of assuming a vital role in an evolving civilization.
 
The Wayne Central School District subscribes to the general theory of individual differences; namely, that each student is an individual and has innate abilities, ambitions, and emotions. In the process of educating this individual, the program should provide a challenge while reflecting a concern for needs based on individual capabilities.
 
The Wayne Central School District further subscribes to the following fundamental principles:
 
1.  Children, regardless of potential, are capable of learning and acquiring the skill and knowledge needed to function to the best of their ability in our society,
 
2.  Our responsibility is to see that children learn. The energies of all participants should be focused on achieving the desired outcomes. Accountability does not end with following established rules and procedures; its essence is found in results,
 
3.  Minimum competence, while necessary, is not enough. Successful participation in our society demands much more. All children are entitled to approved curriculum, to instructional methods, and to expectations that challenge them to perform at their best, and help them to become truly proficient in knowledge and skills,
 
4.  Every child in New York State is entitled to the resources necessary to provide the sound, basic education that the state constitution requires,
 
5.  Each participant in the educational system should have the opportunity to effectively discharge his or her responsibility, and each participant should be held accountable for achieving desired results. This principle applies to all participants in the educational process – students, parents, teachers, counselors, librarians, administrators, the Board of Education, and others,
 
6.  Achievement of desired results by individuals and groups should be rewarded. Creativity in our students needs to be nurtured and encouraged. Occasional failure in a large and diverse system us probably unavoidable. However, failure should not be permitted to persist. When it occurs, with either individuals or groups, help should be provided and the situation changed.
 

II.  District Mission Statement:
 
Based upon the belief that all students can learn, the staff of Wayne Central School district accepts the responsibility to teach all students regardless of differences, the fundamental skills. We further accept the responsibility to challenge all students to attain higher levels of achievement. Wayne Central will provide the opportunity, environment, and encouragement to meet this goal while developing the whole child physically, emotionally, and culturally.

3.  Different geological processes shaped the physical environments of the United States, Canada, and Latin America.
4.  The nations and regions of the Western Hemisphere can be analyzed in terms of spatial organization, places, regions, physical settings (including natural resources), human systems, and environment and society. A region is an area that is tied together for some identifiable reason, such as physical, political, economic, or cultural features.
5.  The physical and human characteristics of places in the United States, Canada, and Latin America today.
6.  Culture and experiences influence people’s perceptions of places and regions in the United States, Canada, and Latin America today.

B.  History of the United States, Canada, and Latin America
1.  The New Nation – industrial growth and expansion
2.  Citizenship in the United States
3.  Comparative Citizenship
4.  Immigration
5.  Different ethnic, national, and religious groups, including Native American Indians, have contributed to the cultural diversity of these nations and regions by sharing their customs, traditions, beliefs, ideas, and languages.
6.  Different people living in the Western Hemisphere may view the same event or issue from different perspectives.
7.  The migration of groups of people in the United States, Canada, and Latin America has led to cultural diffusion because people carry their ideas and ways of life with them when they move from place to place.
8.  Connections and exchanges exist between and among the peoples of Europe, sub-Saharan Africa, Canada, Latin America, the Caribbean, and the United States. These connections and exchanges include social/cultural, migration/immigration, and scientific/technological.
9.  Key turning points and events in the histories of Canada, Latin America, and the United States can be organized into different historical time periods. For example, key turning points might include: 18th century exploration and encounter; 19th century westward migration and expansion; 20th century population movement from rural to suburban areas.
10.  Important historic figures and groups have made significant contributions to the development of Canada, Latin America, and the United States.

C.  The Economies of the United States, Canada, and Latin American Nations
1.  Concepts such as scarcity, supply and demand, markets, opportunity costs, resources, productivity, economic growth, and systems can be used to study the economies and economic systems of the United States, Canada, and Latin America.
2.  Individuals and groups in the United States, Canada, and Latin American attempt to satisfy their basic needs and wants by utilizing scarce capital, natural, and human resources.
3.  Types and availability of resources are important to economic development in the United States, Canada, and Latin America today.
4.  The nations of North, Central, and South America depend on one another for various resources and products they need.
5.  Production, distribution, exchange, and consumption of goods and services are economic decisions which the nations of North and South America must make.
6.  Science and technology have influenced the standard to living in nations in North, Central, and South America.
7.  Exchanges of technologies, plants, animals, and diseases between and among nations of the Americas and Europe and sub-Saharan Africa have changed life in these regions.
8.  Nations in North, Central, and South America form organizations and make agreements to promote economic growth and development.
9.  As the economic systems of the global community have become more interdependent, decisions made in one nation or region in the Western Hemisphere have implications for all nations or regions.
 
D.  The Governments of the United States, Canada, and Latin American Nations
1.  Across time and place, the people of the Western Hemisphere have held differing assumptions regarding power, authority, governance, and law.
2.  Basic civic values such as justice, due process, equality, and majority rule with respect for minority rights are expressed in the constitutions and laws of the United States, Canada and nations of Latin America.
3.  Constitutions, rules, and laws are developed in democratic societies in order to maintain order, provide security, and protect individual rights.
4.  The rights of citizens in the United States are similar to and different from the rights of citizens in other nations of the Western Hemisphere.

6.  Concepts such as civic life, politics, and government can be used to answer questions about what governments can and should do, how people should live their lives together, and how citizens can support the proper use of authority or combat the abuse of political power. (Adapted from: Civics Framework for the 1998 NAEP, p. 19)
7.  Legal, political, and historic documents define the values, beliefs, and principles of constitutional democracy. In the United States these documents include the Declaration of Independence, the United States Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. In Canada these documents include the British North America Act and the Canadian Bill of Rights.
