Our Vision, Mission, and Commitment
The Healthy Student Project was initiated in the Fall of 2015. Now going into the 3rd year of its inception the program is in a crucial stage. It is our vision to impose new standards of education, beginning with our elementary schools. Participating elementary schools have hired the required personnel and will begin to retrieve and assess feedback from the program after the end of the 2016-2017 school year. The main purpose is to help understand youthful students and prepare them psychologically for their success in education. By utilizing counselors and trained teaching professionals the students will be able to benefit from their guidance and motivation. And after concluding the 2017-2018 year we expect to see exceptional improvements for each student.Furthermore, the mission is to dedicate time to know students, mold teachers, and improve the academic culture.
The Healthy Student Project allows our elementary schools to take advantage of additional human resources to gently drive every student in the right direction, both academically and in social aspects. More importantly, our teachers will be educated to refuse a collective approach and pursue individual improvements for each and every student. The program undoubtedly will be the first of its kind. So, being able to effect the student body as a whole but also build personalized attention for students in need is our prime objective.
With the implementation of this project each elementary school is committed to maintaining a safe learning culture. Thus, the addendum of "Character Counts" courses and other educational functions will deter students from negative behavior in the classroom and will result in an increase of achievement status for every student. Furthermore, the commitment to students will ensure staggering improvements in student behavior, attendance, and morale. And most importantly, through this project we will establish Parent Programs with high participation rates. Not many educational projects focus on education at home. Yes, homework is an at home educational strategy to cement newly learned knowledge but identifying each student's parents and provoking them to become involved in their child's education is relatively unusual. Thus, the Healthy Student Project will aim to increase parent participation in order to build academic motivation in their children.
