Mission

THE EINSTEIN SCHOOL SEEKS TO EDUCATE THE WHOLE CHILD; A CHILD WELL-ARMED WITH KNOWLEDGE AND WITH AN ABILITY TO APPLY WHAT HAS BEEN LEARNED IN REAL WORLD SITUATIONS. EINSTEIN STUDENTS WORK IN AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE CREATIVE THINKING IS NOT JUST ENCOURAGED BUT APPLAUDED AND CHERISHED; AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE MISTAKES ARE VIEWED NOT AS FAILURE BUT AS THE EXPLORATION OF A PATH THAT LED IN THE WRONG DIRECTION. THE SELF-CONFIDENCE OUR STUDENTS GAIN THROUGH HARD WORK, ACCEPTANCE, AND TOLERANCE OF NEW IDEAS ALLOWS THEM TO EMBRACE PERSONAL INTEGRITY AND TO DEVELOP A DEEP SENSE OF RESPONSIBILITY THAT ALLOWS THEM TO MAKE WISE AND ETHICAL CHOICES. A RIGOROUS EDUCATION; ABIDING CURIOSITY; AND RESPECT, COMPASSION, AND SERVICE TO OTHERS ARE THE PRINCIPLED FOUNDATION ON WHICH EINSTEIN STUDENTS WILL BUILD THEIR FUTURE AND THE REASON THAT AN EINSTEIN EDUCATION IS SPECIAL.
