Part 2: Beliefs
and Mission
Our
Beliefs
-
Student
learning should be the primary focus of all decisions impacting the
work of the
school.
-
All
students can learn.
-
Students
need to apply their learning in meaningful contexts.
-
Students
learn in different ways and should be provided with a variety of
instructional
approaches to support their learning.
-
Each
student is a valued individual with unique physical, social,
emotional and intellectual
needs.
-
Schools
need to function as a learning organization and promote
opportunities for
all those who have a stake in the success of the school to work
together as a community
of learners.
-
The
commitment to continuous improvement is imperative if our school is
going to
enable students to become confident, self-directed lifelong
learners.
Our
Mission
Learning
for Life
The
mission statement does have a double meaning, and both interpretations
are intended. Learning for life can be taken to mean both learning for a
lifetime and learning the skills needed to lead a life as a productive
citizen.
