Our mission is to provide a
kindergarten through grade eight school that will draw upon our considerable experience in
working together as a community to develop and implement a curriculum that discovers and
supports the special characteristics and unique learning styles of each student. We will
engage that student in meaningful learning experiences for the purposes of clearly stated
goals in the areas of understandings, knowledge, skills, habits and social competencies.
The curriculum will be embedded in the reality of city life and will reinforce the
positive aspects of our city: its culture, art and economy, its working class history and
strong work ethic. Our philosophy is
informed by an understanding that learning takes place in the context of family and that
family must be supported in ways that make learning for the child possible. |
