Study

"Study helps us to know the world." At Friends Seminary we value the process of learning and THE PRACTICE OF STUDY as much as, if not more than, the product. We need to experience education, not just receive it; therefore curiosity and inquiry are essential, encouraging opportunities for collaborative discussion and investigation. We value the work of learning, accepting and learning from failures as necessary steps on the road to knowledge and wisdom.

What does learning mean to me?

What strategies and approaches help me to learn? How do I participate and stay engaged in class?

How does study help me to know the world?

JANET GILBRAITH, 1986

“We trust that, given the right opportunities, children will grow up into responsible adults, capable of making good choices and of saving the world from disaster.”
