COMMUNITY

We are a community. Every day, Aidan students are actively involved in community activities and the celebration of fundamental human values. We respect individual differences, value partnership, seek cooperative approaches in our planning and problem-solving, believe in hard work and aiming for one’s personal best effort, and take joy in one another’s achievements and successes.

At Aidan, children learn and grow with a strong sense of relationship to all other members of the community. The nurturing of self-confidence and independence is a goal of every Aidan teacher. Their support of each individual helps students feel that they can, through their own efforts, contribute to their society and to the world around them.

And they do. Whether it is an ongoing partnership with a senior center, collections for refugees, or making valentines for a childrens’ hospital, Aidan's elementary students initiate numerous community service projects. Aidan’s younger students participate in many of the service projects organized by Aidan’s active parent body.

In reaching beyond the classroom and the school, Aidan calls its students to involvement in service to the greater community and to compassion for others. Throughout the year, students contribute talent, time, and energy
to projects that benefit those in need, instilling a civic conscience.
