Philosophy
My educational philosophy is a student-centered, holistic approach centered on Gospel values. Student-centered learning is focused on each student's interests, abilities, and learning styles, placing the teacher as a facilitator of learning. Holistic education creates a learning environment that fosters a student’s physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. Jesus is a model teacher. His message should encompass everything we do as educators: This is my commandment: love one another as I love you (John 15:12). Each student should graduate with the necessary skills and moral compass to successfully navigate the greater world around them.
