community has the responsibility to work in concert with the home to provide consistent
messages about how we are to treat each other, and
WHEREAS, the entire community participated in a process to identify a common ground

As we continue to face the challenges and opportunities of our society, I call on all citizens of
Chanhassen to promote and model these eight values. Chanhassen's commitment and dedication
to building a bright future for all members, but especially the youth, of this community remains
a top priority.
