Philosophy:
Excel Academy Founder Jennifer Wistisen believes that each child is a unique Individual who needs a secure, caring and stimulating atmosphere in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially. It is her desire as an educator to help students meet their fullest potential in these areas by providing an environment that is safe, supports risk-taking, and invites sharing of ideas.
Elements conducive to establishing such a learning environment are:
- Allow the child's natural curiosity to direct his or her learning
- Promote respect for all things and all people
