Belief Statements
We believe children learn best:
• when they love learning;
• when individual academic, social, emotional and physical needs are recognized and addressed;
• when curriculum and instructional practices inspire creativity, academic growth, cooperation and responsibility;
• in a safe, child-centered and respectful environment;
• when they develop meaningful relationships with quality educators who foster confidence, self-esteem and an excitement for learning;
• in a community of positive role models;
• when diversity is valued;
• when families are actively involved in their children's education, working in partnership with educators;
• when sufficient resources are available and responsibly managed;
• when the first priority is the educational best of all children. |
