The success of the Northwest Unified Schools is built upon the pledge (pwon) that every student, teacher, principal, parent, community must take every school day as part of our daily reminder of our common commitment to each other. This pledge will be translated into our local language.

We promise to ensure that the school operates from 7:00 am to 5:00 pm, to ensure that students are in school, to expect the highest quality services from the principal and teachers, and the students to perform at their highest level, to put in the time and effort to learn how to help our students to learn, and to sacrifice our comfort to help teachers do their work and students to learn, and we promise to make the education of our children as our first and most important priority.
