  3. CORE VALUES Community Life Long Learning Responsibility Respect

  4. PHILOSOPHY We believe that an inclusive education provides all children with the opportunity to learn with and from each other. All children gain valuable experiences in an environment where children are different in their abilities. Our curriculum is based on the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks with play as an important vehicle for learning both early academics and social skills. We believe our inclusive program builds a lifelong foundation for respecting human differences.
