Our Philosophy

It is our mandate to serve the École Sifton School community and to meet the educational needs of all our students.  We strive to promote the academic, social, emotional and physical growth of our students while recognizing their unique individual characteristics.

Responsible members of society respect the rights of others without sacrificing their own rights.  It is our goal to guide students to be responsible members of society in a manner that promotes each individual's feeling of positive self-worth.

Learning is a life-long process and in today's changing world a continuing desire to find out and know could well be the essence of an individual's success.  For this reason we strive to cultivate within each student an inquiring mind, tuned to a life-long positive attitude toward learning.
