I understand the importance of fostering a positive school experience for every child.  I am committed to creating a school that knows no limits to the academic success and emotional well-being of each student.  I agree to carry out the responsibilities found in the Teacher Pledge. These responsibilities are:

• Mission and Vision of Degan

• Prepare rigorous lessons and assessments

• Intentionally teach life skills of grit, growth mindset, and Eagle Essentials

• Ensure that students and parents know where the student is performing, where they should be, and how to get to proficient or advanced in Reading, Writing, Science, and Math

Each of these responsibilities speaks to my commitment to teach to state standards, communicate regularly with parents, and strive to meet the individual needs of each student.
