Collaboration

…means sharing — de-privatizing — the work and it means talking candidly—and being able to disagree constructively—about how we achieve shared goals.

We share responsibility for the success of ALL the students.

Parents

Parents are the first teachers. They are responsible for the development of values, attitudes and habits that will be needed as their children associate with classmates in school. Such inculcation are likewise beneficial when they work and play with neighbors and the community at large.

Teachers

Teachers enrich the students’ experiences at home, thus strengthening the valuable, personal traits and characteristics initially developed by parents. In the end, the attention and efforts of both “custodians” are accorded acknowledgement and recognition by members of the entire community.
