We Believe To meet children where they are
means we have to really get to know each child as
an individual and begin to understand their
strengths and weaknesses.
3
We Believe Children are inquisitive by nature
and if they are made to feel safe and comfortable
in their environment, they will strive to learn.
4
We Believe Learning best takes place when it
is centered on the learner and the choices he
makes about his learning.
5
We Believe As educators, we must nurture hope
where it exists and instill it where there is
none.
6
We Believe It is not only our privilege, but
also our responsibility to lead the students
from their own experiences and interests to the
depth and breadth of the work within the
framework of the subjects we are supposed to
teach. Herein lies the art of teaching.
