Our Guiding Principles
Children learn best: 
In a safe, respectful and supportive environment where they feel valued and know that their teachers have confidence in their ability to learn.
In a challenging environment where they are inspired to do their best, to apply themselves to their studies, to take responsible risks and to strive for continual improvement.
When their teachers address their individual needs, thereby acknowledging that people have different kinds of minds, learn in different ways and progress at different rates.
When they actively engage and when their teachers employ a wide repertoire of teaching and learning strategies.
When they make connections, apply their knowledge and utilize higher level thinking skills.
In a well-prepared and resource-rich environment, that integrates information technologies.
When they receive meaningful and timely feedback on what they do well and how they can improve.
When parents, students and teachers work together in a positive partnership.
