Green Acres School is dedicated to progressive education. This process of education has at its core a comprehensive understanding of child development which recognizes:
- the cognitive, social, emotional, creative, and physical needs of children;
the need to respect children as individuals and to acknowledge variations in their growth patterns and learning styles;
the value of helping children discover their own strengths, weaknesses, and preferences; and
the importance of each child’s self-esteem and self confidence.
