SCHOOL MISSION

To engage and support all students as they become self-directed, life-long learners who think critically and creatively, and function as caring, productive citizens.

SCHOOL VISION

To create as many varied and positive learning experiences as possible for all learners.

SCHOOL VALUES

The Instructional Core – the respectful, dignified relationship between the learner and the teacher in the presence of content – is the heart and soul of our work.

Our role is to enhance learning and the role of the student is to learn.

SCHOOL BELIEFS

We believe that learning:

• is a collaborative process involving students, staff, teacher advisors, parents and community.
• is both an individual and cooperative process concerned with development of the whole person.
• prepares students to become competent, productive, healthy, contributing members of the school and larger community
• is continuous and lifelong.
• thrives in an atmosphere of trust and respect, and in a safe, attractive physical environment both inside and outside the school.
