SCHOOL MISSION, VISION
AND VALUES
Every school crafts their mission and vision
statements to draw the directions of the instution. The
mission and vision mirror what the school wishes and
hopes to eventually become and accomplish (Peterson &
Deals, 2009).
Even though these are called statements, they are
embodied by all of the values, beliefs, norms, and
assumptions that school holds (Confeld, 2016).

Beliefs are understandings about the world around us. They
are consciously held, cognitive views about truth and reality.
In addition, beliefs are how we understand the world and
people around us while assumptions are a set of beliefs
perceptionss, and values that guide behavior.
