Core Educational Competencies, Capacities and Values

Our curriculum enables students to ask questions and develop flexible thinking. We want our students to be inquisitive, creative, and engaged learners. We teach our students through how they learn – visually, auditorily, and kinesthetically – by seeing, hearing and doing! We want our students to learn how to learn in order to keep up with the fast-changing world. We value our safe village that promotes healthy living, and age-appropriate use of technology.
