One World School’s fundamental philosophy of education is that all children have the potential to learn and be successful. This philosophy is clearly reflected in One World School’s mission, vision, goals, and guiding principles for learning. One World School views and educates each child as an individual with limitless abilities and potential.
One World School embodies three powerful ideals that will transform the lives of many children and their families. These ideals, formed as the school’s motto, are unity, equity, and learning for children of all abilities. The phrase “children of all abilities” conveys One World School’s emphasis on individual abilities rather than limitations. It also places great importance on the acceptance of children with a wide spectrum of learning profiles, including those who are gifted and talented, children who are average or typical learners, children with mild, moderate, and significant special education needs, and children who just learn differently. One World School also aims to create a school in which children of all abilities learn together and from one another and respect and value each individual’s unique characteristics, thereby fostering unity amongst all members of the school community.
