Mrs. Lutz Philosophy

My philosophy of teaching is based on treating every child with dignity and respect.  I have high expectations for every child and believe that each one has something special to contribute to class. I believe school is more than teaching reading, writing, and arithmetic.  It is a place where a child learns to socialize, respect others, learn Christian values, and learn to be responsible.  I want my students to know that it is OK to make mistakes but they need to be accountable for their actions. It is easy to blame someone else but to accept responsibility can be difficult for some children.  If a serious problem arises, it is essential to have open lines of communication with the parents, teacher and principal.  As a team, we need to work together.
