Sherwood Elementary Three Guiding Principles Mutual Respect Treat others the way that you want to be treated. Respect the fact that we are all different and yet all the same. Our school is a large family and we need to support each other. Right to Learn and Teach Students and teachers as Sherwood have the right to a productive learning environment. We all contribute to that environment by doing our best, helping others and following the rules. Self-Control You are responsible for the good and bad things that you do. You control yourself. Be proud of your accomplishments, and apologize when you make a mistake. You cannot blame someone else for what you do.
