SHINE Philosophy

S  Special Students!

 Every child has been designed uniquely by God with immeasurable worth, value, purpose and potential.

H  Happy learning!

When learning is filled with joy, fun and discovery, the brain is engaged and students tend to develop a love for learning, a desire to excel, their natural curiosity is fostered, they have better retention and academic performance, and learning continues beyond the “educational” setting, ultimately creating life-long learners.

 I  Individualized Instruction!

Teaching students is most effective when it is based on the student’s individual needs, learning modalities and pacing.  Plans of instruction should be specific to the student, utilizing a variety of methods and/or curriculum that best meet their needs.

N  Nurturing environment!

Learning happens best through relationship in a joy-filled, safe, encouraging, loving and kind environment.  This allows the student to explore, excel, gain confidence and take pride in their work.

E   Engaged for Excellence!

Teaching children to pursue excellence requires engaging them mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically, which motivates them, makes new connections, and leads to higher academic performance.

​

                      We desire for each child to have the opportunity to SHINE!!!
