About Math Enrichment

Vision

The vision of Math Enrichment is to provide a superior summer educational experience in a diverse, family-oriented environment that meets all the academic, social, creative, emotional, and physical needs of the individual student.

Philosophy

Math Enrichment believes that all children have the right to be educated in a safe, positive environment in which they are respected as unique individuals and are challenged to achieve their full potential. We also believe that children must become literate and articulate, mathematically competent, technologically adept, and have the opportunity to develop their creative and physical talents and abilities. We recognize our responsibility to generate enthusiasm and excitement for the summer by providing a curriculum that is relevant, integrated and age-appropriate.

We believe that children will quite naturally expand their understanding and knowledge of mathematics in a setting that cultivates an active, participatory approach to learning. The ability to analyze, evaluate and employ critical thinking skills in mathematics can only be developed when relevant life experiences require the consistent application of these skills.

We believe that the responsibility to support, encourage and nurture each child is one we share as partners with parents and guardians. We recognize the need to create a school culture that is committed to academic excellence and responsive to individual patterns of growth and development. Math Enrichment's vision is based on preparing children to function effectively in future classes; to think independently, critically and creatively; to become collaborating members of daily classroom activities; and most importantly, to become lifelong learners.

We strive to create and maintain an atmosphere that fosters the healthy emotional, intellectual, social, and physical growth of each student. We recognize mastery of basic skills as a primary goal. We acknowledge that we learn best in an environment of sharing, caring, laughing, questioning, risking, and growing. We want all students to live, grow and have fun!
