Educating Without Boundaries... Learning Without Limits

MISSION

To inspire and empower all students to maximize their growth as learners and develop a balanced sense of self, steadfast resiliency, and deep respect for others.

OUR VISION
An innovative learning community that educates without boundaries – where all students cultivate their minds, create enduring connections and discover their passions

CORE VALUES

We believe:

  • Every child has an incredible capacity to learn and the job of educators is to create an environment that maximizes each student's growth - including the willingness to take risks and learn from mistakes
  • Students thrive when they are actively engaged in solving problems that matter and when we support them socially, emotionally, physically and Intellectually
  • World-class learning is driven by world-class educators and therefore we must attract, develop, retain and invest in passionate and effective teaching professionals
  • Respect is the cornerstone for all of our work. We demonstrate this as members of a learning community and operate with high integrity at all times
