It is our dream that students will……..experience their classrooms
as invigorating, even inspiring environments – places they look
forward to going to and places they hate to leave.
It is our dream that they will come to know themselves as
masters of various crafts……. It is our dream that…….
they will come to love the process of learning itself……..
by making it their own.
