the power to create a personally meaningful life, one that is a
continual process of discovery and joy. We regard childhood as a

to the education of the whole child, concerning ourselves equally
with ethical and intellectual development. We believe in the
human urge to grow and to learn, and we respect the individual
nature and rhythm of each child’s path. We seek to preserve
the vital connections in a child’s thinking, feeling and willing,
thus allowing a world of vibrant thought to unfold. We consider a
child’s relationship to self, others and the world to be
fundamental to his emotional maturation. Thus, we are
committed to cultivating those qualities of a child’s humanity –
compassion, kindness, love, and consideration – that inspire an
inner joy, and a feeling of responsibility toward the world.
