This We Believe

The foundational beliefs upon which global learning schools are designed:

  • We believe in excellence and equity for each student.
  • We believe that each student should graduate with the knowledge, skills, and dispositions to be globally competent.
  • We believe that each student, at the end of high school, should be ready for college and career with all options open and available to them.
  • We believe that students own their learning and that the adults in the school, home, and community have responsibility to foster each student’s success.
  • We believe that the school is a safe, welcoming, and collaborative place that fosters inquiry, innovation, and reflection both in the school and in the broader world beyond the school walls.
  • We believe that the school is place where learning is an ongoing process and that students have opportunities to make mistakes and grow from them as an essential part of the school experience.

Built upon these beliefs, the people profiles, school design matrix, and graduate performance systems help guide the creation and development of a high-quality, global learning schools that prepare all students to be globally competent, ready for college, and the world beyond.
