School Philosophy and Mission
"Every school has goals for its children. Some stress academics, some stress personal growth. There are places with rigid rules and others which are flexible. Make certain that your philosophy and their philosophy are in harmony. At Epiphany, a positive self-image is of utmost importance. We want the children to feel good about themselves, to enjoy coming to school, and love learning. We also value exploration and asking questions; we want children to see learning as a process, as a quest, in which knowledge is the ultimate reward. Creativity is also extremely important. Children should be encouraged to express themselves in a variety of ways, through different media, through movement, and through language skills. And finally, independence. School must encourage the children to grow and, ultimately, grow away from their small worlds into the larger one that awaits them." Extracted from www.ecns.org
