School Notes
McDowellSchool's philosophy is to reach each child as an
individual in order to help him or her grow intellectually,
socially and emotionally. We provide each child with an exciting
and personal educational experience,and then empower each child to
utilize these experiences to become all of which he/she is capable.
Our intention is that each student will: read- enjoying all that
the ability to read provides; comprehend and utilize math- both in
terms of skill and concepts; explore his/her own society and those
of other peoples and times; develop and keep in touch with his/her
creativity through art, music and drama; experience new areas of
thought and action; feel challenged; develop a sense of commitment
to his/her environment; and, practice a respect for the dignity and
worth of others.
