The Student
Each student holds enormous capacity. We believe that each student is endowed with unique talents and capacities which can only be revealed with proper training and education.
Students practice respect and discipline. While the school should be an environment of creativity, critical thinking and joy – it must also be marked by order and discipline.
Students are expected to conduct themselves in a manner worthy of their potential. This means they are expected to take care of their physical selves, prepare for learning, and to be respectful to teachers and mentors as well as their peers.
After counseling and reflection in collaboration with their parents, students who repeatedly compromise the safe learning environment of the school, may face expulsion.
In our work to make all students successful learners, we seek to develop and encourage certain characteristics that have been found to be shared by those who are successful in pursuit of learning:
Independence – Works independently
Responsibility – Accepts responsibility for own actions
Curiosity – Shows curiosity about subject matter; asks questions
Cooperation – Works, shares, and plays cooperatively
Creativity – Applies creativity to work
Confidence – Exhibits confidence with peers and adults in addressing problems
Resourcefulness – Able to find answers using available resources
