Philosophy

Uniforms:
Fostering a sense of unity and identity. Our school uniform is more than just
clothing; it symbolizes our school as a community and serves as a reminder of the values we
hold dear. Wearing uniforms enhances school pride, unity, and community spirit. It fosters a sense of belonging and eliminates distraction, enabling students to focus on their studies and character development. By ensuring your child properly wears the uniform as outlined in the handbook, you contribute to a positive learning atmosphere.
 
Grooming:
Cultivating respect for self and others: Proper grooming reflects the respect we
have for ourselves and those around us. It promotes hygiene, self-discipline and an
understanding of appropriate presentation in various settings. We ask that you guide your child in maintaining a neat and tidy appearance in line with the guidelines set forth in the handbook.
 
Punctuality:
Cultivating discipline and responsibility: Arriving on time is a valuable life skill
that we aim to cultivate in our students. Punctuality teaches discipline, responsibility and respect for others’ time. Classes begin at 8:00 am. All Kindergarten - 8th grade students not in their seat by 8:05 am will be marked tardy. Arriving late to class is disruptive for your child, the teacher and the classroom. By ensuring your child arrives promptly to school, you contribute to the smooth flow of daily activities and demonstrate the importance of honoring commitments.

We want to assure you that our teachers and staff are committed to upholding these standards and modeling them to our students. As partners in this journey, we kindly request your support in reinforcing these principles at home. By consistently following our guidelines, you provide your child with a strong foundation for success, both academically and personally.
