Mission
THE MISSION OF OUR SCHOOL IS TO PROVIDE AFFORDABLE, HIGH QUALITY PRE-SCHOOL EDUCATION GUIDED BY THE MONTESSORI TEACHING PRINCIPLES, WITH THE GOAL OF FOSTERING IN OUR CHILDREN A STRONG SENSE OF INDEPENDENCE, CREATIVITY, RESPECT FOR SELF AND OTHERS, AND AN APPRECIATION OF DIVERSITY IN PEOPLE, AND A DEEP LOVE OF LEARNING. OUR SCHOOL IS A COMMUNITY THAT PRIDES ITSELF ON ITS RESPECT FOR, AND CELEBRATION OF, DIVERSITY. OUR FAMILIES AND STAFF COME FROM A NUMBER OF CULTURES, SPEAK A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT LANGUAGES, CELEBRATE DIFFERENT RELIGIONS, REPRESENT DIVERSE FAMILY CONSTELLATIONS, AND GENERALLY, REFLECT ALL THE FACES OF BROOKLYN. THIS RESPECT FOR AND COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY IS REFLECTED NOT ONLY IN OUR HIRING AND EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES, BUT IS ALSO A CONSIDERATION IN OUR ADMISSIONS PROCEDURES. RESPECT AND POSITIVE COMMUNICATION ARE KEY VALUES FOR OUR SCHOOL.
