OUR VISION

​

To build a learning center that is a good citizen. Make it a place that celebrates lifelong learning through the International Baccalaureate program. Give it the flexibility to accommodate more or fewer students as needs change. Make it so children and adults have a wide range of learning resources yet still feel like they belong to a small, caring community. Keep it safe so all students can flourish and reach their potential. Connect it through technology with the rest of the world to prepare all learners to confidently take their place in the rapidly changing global society they will inherit.

MOTTO


Think - Act - Become.

 

CHOOSING INNOVATION​

​

"Innovation involves trying new ideas and applying them in new ways. Innovation in education is not about imposing faddish ideas on our students or teachers. It is about finding worthwhile ideas and enabling teachers, students, parents, and community members to work together to create learning environments where all students thrive—intellectually, socially, emotionally, and physically."

​
