School Vision
At United, we believe in the importance of...
Student Voice
We build and maintain a culture of active listening, reflection, feedback, student voice and generous collaboration. This exists in all aspects of our school culture including teaching and learning, curriculum and extracurricular opportunities. Students talk about their learning and thinking with their teachers, peers and the wider community.
Compassion & Curiosity
We create a school where staff, students and families feel comfortable, cared for, challenged, trusted and have a strong connection to our community. Students and adults are both seen as lifelong learners. Members of our community collaborate with and support each other. Students share their work with audiences wider than their classroom community, contributing to a more just and equitable world.
Equity, Inclusion & Anti-racism
We are committed to cultivating a school culture that nurtures a positive identity and sense of belonging. One in which all children are invited into challenging and rigorous culturally responsive educational opportunities that help them appreciate their unique gifts and heritage. All members of our community engage in explicit anti-racist discussion and practice.
The 6 C’s...
The 6 C’s are traits we value and seek to cultivate in our community in all that we do. They are: Community, Courage, Compassion, Clarity, Curiosity, and Creativity. We celebrate these traits both at Community Sing and during Morning Meetings on Fridays. Thank you to our art teacher, Caryn Davidson, for creating these incredible illustrations to embody each C!
