Educating the Whole Child • Each student enters school healthy and learns about and practices a healthy lifestyle. • Each student learns in an environment that is physically and emotionally safe for students and adults. • Each student is actively engaged in learning and is connected to the school and broader community. • Each student has access to personalized learning and is supported by qualified, caring adults. • Each student is challenged academically and prepared for success in college or further study and for employment and participation in a global environment. http://www.wholechildeducation.org/about/
