Education has changed immensely over the years This especially came to the forefront with the implementation of the No Child Left Behind Act on January 2, 2002. The NCLB has a notable and honorable goal; to improve the quality of the American educational system by establishing high standards and accountability for the learning of all children.

The Ocean View School District will not tolerate any unethical or any unmoral behavior on the parts of the students, faculty, management and or the board members. Ocean View School District’s codes of ethics are strictly enforced. The code of ethics that the Ocean View School district has implemented were not created to hinder our teachers but rather to give them a guideline to work with.
