Vision

Let’s create a path to improve facilities, promote trust between the community and DeKalb County Schools, and properly plan school capacity.

Students are the priority

• Put students’ needs first

• It starts in the schoolhouse

• Eliminate self-interest, personal agendas and politics

Take Responsibility

• Solve Problems (Don’t create them!)

• Complaining is not a solution

• Blaming changes nothing

Operate with Integrity

• No tolerance for unethical behavior

• Communicate success, own mistakes, and plan for improvement

• Responsible and transparent use of our tax dollars

Build Bridges

• Listen and understand community needs

• Make DeKalb work for everyone

• Success comes from working together to serve students
