Beliefs
Fundamental to the development of a superior educational program are the basic beliefs by which our learning and teaching processes are developed. Here are some of our beliefs:
- Each student is a valued and unique individual -- physically, socially, emotionally, intellectually, and culturally.
- All students given the opportunity can learn and achieve.
- A safe, disciplined, and physically comfortable environment promotes student learning.
- Learning is facilitated when both students and teachers are actively involved in the learning process.
- Students learn to make appropriate decisions given a supportive and challenging learning environment and high expectations.
- Developmentally appropriate learning activities enhance learning at all levels.
- Students, teachers, parents, and the community share the responsibility for the support of the school's mission.
- Instructional practices should incorporate learning activities that take into account differences in learning styles.
- The educational process should emphasize learning and the grade should reflect this emphasis through the application of knowledge.
- A low Teacher/pupil ratio is a key component of the educational process.
