The Blake School
School Notes Overview:
At Blake school, We believe that learning is a lifelong adventure. We believe in facing each day with minds open to knowledge and hearts open to love. We believe in freedom to wonder, to ask, to explore, to imagine, and to create. We believe that success means doing our best, being our best and feeling proud of our effort. We believe that every one of us has special talents and that the talents of each of us help ALL of us. We believe in ourselves and we believe in each other. The Blake School becomes departmentalized at the elementary grade level. The students move from classroom to classroom as the published schedule for each year provides. This allows each teacher to fully prepare and completely organize each room to the smallest detail to accommodate the student’s needs while pursuing each particular subject....
