Lessons are planned with as much teacher-student interaction as possible. There is meaningful participation as opposed to passive receptivity. The approach to teaching and learning varies from class to class. Whole class, small group, and individualized instruction will be found in every classroom. Cooperative learning activities, tutoring, and peer instruction are also evident building-wide.
Teaching methods match learning styles.
Students enjoy learning. Teachers enjoy teaching. This initiative supports the school's effort to fully engage parents in all aspects of school life. There were 269 students enrolled at the end of the 1999-2000 school year. A Bilingual Education program is offered in Cape-Verdean.
