At Raising Stars it is our Mission to create a loving, caring, playful learning environment for children, to guide them into becoming our society’s Raising Stars.
With a foundation built upon a strong and uniquely progressive educational philosophy, Raising Stars upholds an image of the child as a powerful, competent, capable, and integral member of the community. Raising Stars envisions each family as unique, deserving of respect, and the centre of the child’s life. The school fosters interpersonal relationships among children and adults in order to provide an educational experience of the highest quality built upon the belief that children have a natural disposition for learning and an innate curiosity that, when intentionally and carefully nurtured, blossoms into a lifelong love of learning.
