“The Hopi School Community will provide a safe, caring environment where learners acquire and apply skills which empower them to successfully function as inspired life-long learners in a changing society.”

We believe that:

1. Learning is a continuous process that involves the entire community.
2. Producing life-long learners focuses on the whole child: academically, physically, emotionally and socially.
3. The academic learning environment, based on Arizona State Standards, is designed to meet the needs of all students with
       the belief that all children can learn.
4. Effective communication is essential to the success of our school environment and the whole education process.
5. Education should be a child-centered process that provides meaningful opportunities for critical thinking, problem solving
       and, risk taking.
6. The learning environment will provide a safe caring atmosphere, which allows for and respects individual differences.
7. Technology is an integral component of instruction.
8. All endeavors will provide integrated experiences that foster a life-long joy of learning.
