The Tewksbury Township School District values
the uniqueness of all students and will provide child-centered,
innovative learning experiences which will enable each student
to explore new areas and to develop self-esteem, academic
excellence, creativity, social awareness and an enthusiasm
for learning.
The schools aspire to foster skills in critical
thinking, problem solving, effective communication, and information
research. They encourage the development of personal management
and goal setting skills as well as the ability to work cooperatively
and develop skills in leadership, negotiation, collaboration,
and communication. They foster the desire and ability to express
oneself creatively and to appreciate the aesthetic expressions
of others, while at the same time, promoting personal excellence
in reading, writing, computation, social studies, fine and
performing arts, sciences, current events, health and physical
education, and technology. |
