Van Pelt
Elementary Philosophy
|
| The
purpose of Van Pelt Elementary School is to provide an environment in
which the student will develop intellectually, emotionally, and
physically in order to become a contributing member of society. Each
student will be challenged to develop to full potential through
personalized programs that provide flexible learning situations and a
variety of learning activities, within an atmosphere of challenge and
acceptance. |
| |
| It is the responsibility
of the school staff to provide each student the opportunity to acquire
and retain basic facts, ideas, and concepts, and to develop an intellectual
curiosity and a desire for learning that will extend beyond the school
years.
|
|
|
| |
| Each student is influenced
by the community in which he lives. Therefore, cooperative and supportive
interaction between the school and the community will be maintained.
|
| |
| The ultimate goal of the school's programs is to develop in each child
the ability to communicate with others, the power to deal with everyday
situations, the strength to apply rational thinking skills in solving problems. |
