The uniqueness of each child serves as the foundation of the teaching-learning process. Basis skills, real life application and experiences in art and technology enrich learning and develop the whole child. A safe and physically comfortable environment with mutual trust and respect allows teachers to guide, enable, and provide feedback as children construct their own knowledge and learn to communicate. Collaborative teaching and multi-age groups respond to the developmental patterns of children. Learning experiences which unify knowledge and actively engage the child provide a deeper understanding than those which examine the parts separately.
Children learn to value life by preserving, appreciating and nurturing living and growing things.
Partnerships between families, school and community enhance the possibilities for children's academic and social success. Opportunities for children to work cooperatively within a diverse population foster respect, understanding and acceptance of differences. Errors are a natural and important part of learning which help children become creative, critical and reflective thinkers prepared for the world of tomorrow.
