What We Believe
Parents as Equal Partners
Our School
All stakeholders Will have a VoiceA collaborative environment will exist to ensure that our school remains child focused. Parents and children are the customers and what they need and want will drive what is delivered each day.
Students Will be engaged
Nurture the love of learning with a rigorous curriculum that will allow children to think outside the box, questions will get answered, and learning will become motivated. Administrators will support and guide teachers to create this environment for our global students.
Application of Knowledge
The kids learn to apply academic principles to the real world, think strategically and solve problems. Assessments will gauge how successful the curriculum is taught, teaching will not be mundane and geared to ensure success on the assessments.
"Aha" Moments Will be daily
Core knowledge - reading writing and arithmetic, and "portable skills"--critical thinking, making connections between ideas and knowing how to continue learning, are taught simultaneously to make learning engaging, and to make kids attain the knowledge, as well as the skills to set them up for success.
Technology Is a tool That Will be used
Students, parents, teachers and administrators will harness the power of computer and communication technologies to change the way we think about schools and create a transformative experience for all involved. Communication will be interactive and technology will be used to keep all involved informed. Communication will be two-way, and welcomed.
The Moral "Feel"
EQ is just as important as IQ! The social and emotional component of education will be as important as the "academic" rote material. Self esteem is essential for success, and respect will be a 360 degree mandate. Student to teacher, teacher to student, and peer to peer on all levels.
The office of The principal
The principal will interact with students, parents, as well as teachers and the office of the principal will be welcoming. The administrator sets the tone of the school and must genuinely be interested in what parents and teachers can offer.
The result
Engaging children in learning, preparing them for success in the 21st Century!
