Bromley East Charter School actively promotes choice, critical thinking, problem solving, and character development of the whole child, enabling students to achieve academic excellence in a safe environment.
The critical elements of the mission statement are defined as:
•
Choice: Bromley East Charter School will always seek the input of a parent in choosing the educational philosophy (i.e. Montessori or “Core Knowledge”) which best suits the student’s needs; small class size; and positive climate and culture which characterize Bromley East.
• Critical Thinking: In today’s complex world, each person needs to be able to make informed choices, in the best interests of the individual and of society. The deep and broadly-based education we offer our students provides each of them with the knowledge and skills enabling him/her to make those informed choices.
•
Problem-Solving: We practice problem-solving in all of our subjects and in all of our grades each day. Providing knowledge, skills, opportunity, and positive faculty support are the “keys” to making each of our students better prepared to solve problems in school and in life.
•
Character Development: It is essential that each member of our society accept and practice the values which characterize our American culture. Respect, for others, honesty, personal responsibility, etc. permeate our school and its culture, and we are confident that our students will be influenced by those values for their entire lives.
•
At Bromley East, we care about the intellectual, emotional, social, artistic, and physical development of our students and foster student growth in all of these areas.
•
Academic excellence is promoted by our thorough and demanding curricula, the high expectations of our teachers, and a culture which supports our students in striving to do their very best in all that they undertake.
•
Our school is striving constantly to offer children the safest possible environment in which to grow and develop as students, citizens, and capable, caring individuals. |
