To transform how we as adults and students interact with ourselves, each other, and the world around us!
Mission
In WPS children learn to develop student agency through learning, modeling, and developing attributes and skills that are aligned with the CASEL Competencies:
Self-Awareness (emotional regulation, accurate self-perception, self-discipline)
Self-Management (motivation and resilience, self-advocacy, goal-setting)
Social-Awareness (empathy and compassion, cultural competence, perspective-taking)
Responsible Decision-Making (analyzing and decision-making, problem solving, evaluating and reflecting)
In a learner centered classroom, students are partners in the teaching-learning cycle. We value the empowerment of students to own their learning through:
Choice and Voice
Motivation and Engagement
Goal setting and progress monitoring
Autonomy
Strength-based Decisions
