Becoming a Citizen of the World

Children learn in a way that is respectful of their own uniqueness as well as the uniqueness of others. This teaches them to be responsible for their own actions as well as the welfare of their learning community. Children discover....
• that there is more to life than my
senses tell me.
• that we must pause to appreciate the
wonder of the universe.
• a deep reverence for our world and
its inhabitants.
• that life is filled with meaning.
• the courage to voice their inner con
victions and live by them.
• the ability to rise above self interests
for the good of humanity.
• how to cherish silence and peace.
• ways to strive for peace in their
relationships and the world
