For many years, I have said that coming to work every day for a place where I wholeheartedly believe in the mission is a tremendous luxury that I do not take for granted. Many of my colleagues likewise refer to themselves as “mission driven” when they talk about why they work in our school for students with learning disabilities. This has especially been on my mind over the past few months as we have been examining our mission statement to ensure it accurately reflects the school we are.
