The goal of the school is not to give children a body of knowledge. It is to develop their learning muscles, their ability to interact with their world. It is to feed children's hunger for contact and involvement and to encourage their faith in themselves. The school is the embodiment of a process that parents undertake with their children constantly. Parents teach their children throughout the day by answering their questions, by guiding the development of skills like tying their shoes and riding a bike, and by working out an approach to life together.
School is a network for people learning together.
Learning is the response to life. The community is the laboratory for learning. There are no boundaries to this school. Anyone can be a teacher. The desire for greater understanding and accomplishment determines the form of learning.
