Mission Statement:
Village School is a warm and welcoming place for girls to discover their strengths, find their own voices, and grow into confident, self-reliant, and intellectually curious learners. By providing the skills and support necessary to engage in a challenging four-year curriculum, Village School prepares girls to safely take risks and make responsible personal and academic choices.

We believe that:
● An all-girls environment allows girls to develop independent self expression.
● Enhancing the social, emotional, and physical well being of girls is necessary for a well-rounded education.
● Extending learning beyond the classroom walls and into the community fosters compassion and social responsibility.

We believe learning is successful when:
● Understanding is constructed by the student using prior knowledge.
● There is a balance between challenge and comfort.
● Content is related to past learning, connected to future learning and made relevant across disciplines.
● Students are motivated from within as well as by the interaction with peers and the learning environment.
● Students are able to reflect on the act of learning and intentionally employ techniques to further their knowledge.
● A variety of teaching and assessment strategies are employed.
● The community of students, teachers, and staff embraces the importance of learning and the power of knowledge.
