Personal Qualities of Each Staff Member

Each employee will be selected for their position because of special qualities, talents and skills which are needed to make up a well-balanced administrative, teaching and support-staff team for this Centre. Each employee will be part of a total staff, and all are dependent upon one another. Relationships are interwoven and what affects one affects all. All employees will be charged with the total responsibility of working together in a united manner. The goal is to achieve harmony, trust and friendship in our work environment.
