About Us
Our Mission
Our mission is to collaboratively provide the children and youth of the nation with the tools and skills needed to become active participants in their own education and lives. Students are encouraged to become conscientious, compassionate, and confident social citizens with the knowledge to understand the world and the wisdom and courage to change it.
Our School
Diamond School provides an enriched academic program in a safe and nurturing learning environment, where students can benefit from our school's unique educational philosophy and enjoy our close-knit family atmosphere. Our educational program focuses on academic excellence and social awareness, while encouraging the use of technology and involvement in fine and performing arts.
Partnering with Parents
Parents and guardians play an integral role in the education of their children. We have an open door policy and invite you to partner with our teachers and staff to support your children's learning and growth.
What We Do
Diamond School celebrates our students’ love for learning through engaging, challenging, and relevant learning opportunities. Aware that the world is in a state of constant change, the school places at the center of its philosophy the importance of arming students with the skills to succeed in later life. Diamond provides learning opportunities in a real-world context in order to cultivate a culture of resilient, informed, and independent learners who are well versed in creative, adaptive, and imaginative thinking. It is the school's aim to cultivate in our students an ability to meet the demands made upon them in the modern world, be it through technology, science, or social influences. Furthermore, the school wishes to enable its students to be world-aware and caring, and to have a strong sense of community.
Our Vision
Diamond School envisions a school community where each member is a principled and empathic leader dedicated to social responsibility. An enriched learning environment engages every student, and the democratic process is taught alongside social, cultural, and academic skills to motivate lifelong curiosity and empowerment. Students learn how to learn, communicate well with others, and address problems head-on. Every member feels valued and supported to create, express, and achieve success.
Our Goals
The purpose of our school has always been to offer a well-rounded educational experience to our students. We strive to instill in our students an understanding of the rights and responsibilities of the democratic society in which they live, and it is a fundamental goal of our schools to ensure students believe in themselves and recognize the part they must play to make our world a better place. To do that, a cornerstone of our educational philosophy is to promote kindness, cooperation, respect for others, and to teach students to honor and celebrate their diversity.
Our Values
- It is paramount to instill in all people a sense of compassion, consideration, and responsibility to others and the environment;
- Collaborating with others creates endless opportunities for change and drives success, as more can be achieved together than any one person can achieve alone;
- Knowledge should be shared, questions and curiosity encouraged, and imagination celebrated;
- All people must learn to effectively and cooperatively solve problems and resolve disputes;
- People that have a sense of control over their own learning processes are more likely to be motivated to learn, and therefore more likely to learn successfully;
- Competition in the form of grades, percentage marks, and rankings is counterproductive and harmful to learning;
- Education is a community responsibility and takes collective and collaborative action between school, home, and community.
