Aims of the educational program
are:
To help
individuals think about and reflect on different values and the practical implications of
expressing them in relation to themselves, others, the community, and the world at large;
To deepen
understanding, motivation, and responsibility with regard to making personal and social
choices;
To inspire
individuals to choose their own personal, social, moral, and spiritual values and be aware
of practical methods for developing and deepening them; and
To encourage
educators and caregivers to look at education as providing students with a philosophy of
living, thereby facilitating their overall growth, development, and choices so that they
may integrate themselves into the community with respect, confidence, and purpose.
