Glossary

Collaboration

Collaboration is the foundation of a BOCES organization. As part of a cooperative network, we operate within a well-defined structure of accountability for effectiveness and efficiency. We partner with and support school districts and students as educators for all ages and abilities. We will collaborate with our internal and external partners so that every voice matters. We understand relationships are at the heart of growth. As leaders in education, we are dedicated to working with our partners in identifying and supporting actions that center on learning for all.

Community

We recognize that a school community thrives when staff, students, families, and partners come together with a shared purpose. We are dedicated to fostering meaningful connections so that every learner is engaged, supported, and encouraged. Through collaboration and shared responsibility, we can create an environment where all learners can reach their full potential. The commitment to the strength of community is unwavering.

Compassion

To create a school community where all belong, it requires a mindset steeped in compassion and a willingness to connect. To generate real change, we must provide a learning and working environment where people are respected and appreciated. This allows individuals of all backgrounds to share a safe space in understanding and connecting with one another. It aligns with our restorative and trauma-responsive practices which center around the social-emotional wellness of all staff, students, their families, and the community.
