We believe

• Education is a shared responsibility of the Home and School.
• Students should be provided with a rich academic environment, based upon the ideals of Classical Education… with a global perspective.
• A safe and secure environment is conducive to effective learning.
• Education must encompass the development of the whole individual – academic, personal, social, and emotional.
• Students are individuals whose learning is influenced by age, prior knowledge, background, experiences, personality, and physiology.
• The educational process should recognize and accommodate different abilities & learning styles.
• Education is most effective when the learner is actively engaged in the learning process.
• Education should provide “real world” experiences.
• Teachers must receive continuous training with respect to the latest educational methodologies.
• The students’ school experience should foster self-esteem and self-confidence.
• The school experience should promote positive interpersonal relationships.
• The establishment of high – yet realistic – expectations promotes academic excellence.
• Education should encourage responsible citizenship and global awareness.
• Education should instill in students a desire for lifelong learning.
