Our Mission
The Edison School creates a culture where differences are celebrated,
and every student is recognized and valued.
Our Beliefs
- We believe every student has the potential to learn.
- We believe learning differently demands that we teach differently.
- We believe every person who interacts with a student is an educator.
- We believe all educators should have the necessary resources to help every student reach their full potential.
- We believe family partnerships are an essential component in the pursuit of academic and social development.
- We believe students need a school environment that addresses their social, emotional, academic and physical needs.
- We believe every student is unique and has their own strengths and challenges.
Culture of Acceptance
One of the most important components of our approach is the supportive atmosphere we create for our students. We call it the “Culture of Acceptance.”
Students are encouraged to learn in a safe environment where they are free from criticism for being different from others. Instead of expecting students to conform to a particular style of learning, our approach embraces students as they are, builds confidence in their learning strengths and empowers them to achieve their full possibilities.
