Mission Statement:
Easton Country Day School promotes excellence in academic achievement in the context of our motto “Responsibility, Integrity, Community - Praxis." We cultivate mutual respect and kindness in a multicultural environment where we encourage the development of competent, caring, and responsible citizens.
Philosophy/Belief Statement:
Classes at ECDS are vertically integrated to expose student to new material based on academic preparedness other than just age. An excellent education is not one size fits all. With this in mind, we seek to form the educational process around the child - not the other way around.
Traditional grade levels are, at best, only an approximation of where any given child might actually be in his or her academic growth. Easton Country Day School more accurately designs each individual child’s academic experience by utilizing vertical integration.
Vertical integration allows us to adapt an individual’s academic experience to his strengths and progress. For example, classes such as math are taught at the same time of day to all grade levels. This means that q child who is on pare for his age in most materials, but advanced in math, can simply attend a more advanced math class without being taken out of grade level or having his friendships jeopardized. Likewise, a child who needs to spend more time with grade level math may do so without interfering with his academic progression. These types of adaptations are considered quite ordinary and routine by students and teachers alike.
