OUR VALUES

1. Respect – for self, for others, for property, and for different perspectives
2. Pride – in self, in culture, in bilingualism, and in our individual learning journeys
3. Community – through meaningful connections and strong sense of belonging

OUR VISION

We envision a welcoming, inclusive, and safe learning community that is united through a proud embrace of bilingualism and a diversity of culture, identity, and worldview. We aspire to foster an environment where every child has the agency to grow academically and personally, and recognize their intrinsic value.

OUR MISSION

We take a holistic approach to school culture, where, in addition to supporting the social-emotional and physical well-being of all members of our community, we create pathways for intrinsically motivated, life-long learning. Critical to this approach is our commitment to fostering a strong sense of belonging that ensures students, families, and staff feel respected, appreciated, seen, and heard.
