Prospect Sierra cultivates compassion, fairness, respect, and
individuality within a community that celebrates diversity,
authenticity, and service.
Prospect Sierra School embodies several key assumptions in
philosophy and daily practice: that learning is the young person's
pathway to personal growth; that school should be both challenging
and joyous; that school is a community through which students,
teachers and parents develop trust, demonstrate cooperation, show
respect, and acquire an understanding of the rights and needs of
others; and that diversity, in its many human forms, brings quality
and strength to our welcoming and inclusive school.
The school also believes that positive expectations and
relationship-based teaching are essential to the learning
process.
We intend that our students maintain a lifelong love of
learning; to become reflective, critical thinkers; and to become
responsible citizens of the global community.
