Our Philosophy
As educators, we are guided by the belief that our job is to draw out. That children are not vessels wanting to be filled with knowledge, but rather unique individuals with a unique set of experiences and knowledge. That children use their accumulated experiences and knowledge to build understanding. And that this happens through experiential, inquiry-based learning. Teachers are mentors who advise students throughout their growth. As such, relationship driven learning is at the core of our education philosophy. Our focus is on educating the whole child by providing a rich learning environment which engages each individual’s intellectual, emotional, and physical capacities. What we call the head, heart, and hands. Learning is highly individualized, cooperative, and collaborative. Because, for us, school is the place where we help each other.
