“Ética, democracia, respeito e solidariedade...”
Ética, democracia, respeito e solidariedade são os valores fundamentais em que se baseia o Estação do Aprender para orientar suas ações pedagógicas. Estas, por sua vez, são pautadas por um princípio a que somos fiéis: a formação integral.
O Estação do Aprender é um espaço onde as oportunidades de aprendizagem são múltiplas e em todas as áreas do conhecimento. Nossas atividades são planejadas a partir dos fundamentos teóricos de Paulo Freire, Celestin Freinet, Jean Piaget, Emília Ferreiro e Vygotsky.
É na escola, com seu papel revitalizado, que as crianças e os jovens devem construir as bases de seu futuro, de seus valores e de seus projetos e objetivos. É missão da escola formar cidadãos capazes de interagir com um mundo novo de tecnologia e velocidade que nasce todos os dias, e fazê-los participar conscientemente dessas transformações.

Founded in 1984 by Brother Brian Carty, FSC, De La Salle Academy is a private, independent, non-sectarian middle school located in Manhattan. The school's student body includes youngsters from all five boroughs of New York City. De La Salle is the only private, independent school in New York City for academically talented, economically disadvantaged boys and girls in grades six through eight. Our admissions policy is needs-blind; each year we have to raise over 80% of the school's annual budget from sources other than tuition. For 18 years De La Salle has provided and continues to provide gifted, underprivileged adolescents the spiritually nurturing and academically challenging environment they need to ensure bright futures. Students take with them the ideals and values taught at the academy through high school and beyond. This Web site — a joint effort on the part of De La Salle alumni, faculty, and students — is a testament to the sense of brotherhood upon which Brother Brian founded the school. We welcome you to peruse the pages of our online community and become a member of our family!

Currently, we are building a high school addition. As a result of the steady high enrollment over the past decade, SJVA was pressed to develop a strategic campus facility plan that would renovate existing buildings and increase the amount of space in our high school. Specifically, several of the oldest buildings on campus are unable to meet the space and program needs of our faculty and students. In order to maintain programs and to expand other areas of the curriculum, SJVA proposed a $5 million renovation and construction project. This will primarily consolidate the high school's academic space into a central location by enlarging and renovating the existing high school facility. A three-story wing is being built and connected to the current two-story high school. All new classrooms will be provided with "T1" Internet access lines. The project broke ground in December 2004 and is anticipated to be completed by September 2005. Of this $5 million renovation and construction project, $1 million must be raised from a capital campaign. Because St. John Villa is a private Catholic school, we do not receive public funds or money from the Archdiocese for capital projects and therefore, must seek private donations to accomplish this greatly needed project.

    Little Red Schoolhouse, North America
  and Elisabeth Irwin High School - 40 Charlton Street - New York, NY            
Lower School teachers have been thinking together about the goals we set for social studies, in particular the conceptual goals that underlie our projects, trips and written tasks. As much as in literacy or math, we design a program to reflect students’ developmental orientation. We meet them where they are, tapping into their interests and curiosity within the framework of their realm of understanding. For example, we know that the younger child learns through concrete, personal experience – a trip or interview is a springboard for extended learning as your child reflects, questions, draws and writes about an exciting experience, turning it into new and deeper understanding. As the student matures and her worldview broadens, she extracts more and more information from books and symbolic communication, linking this to direct, interactive experience. Eventually, around Third Grade, students are ready to leave what we call the ”here and now” and enter the world of “long ago and far away;” to study those things that cannot be visited directly, tasted or touched. Thanks to the experiential foundation of their earlier years, eight and nine year olds are prepared to appreciate the flow and evolution of history and to conceptualize a timeline leading from then to now.

    Colégio Itapuca, South America
  Rua Noronha Torrezão, 373 - Santa Rosa - Niterói, RJ           
A complexidade que envolve as relações humanas torna quase que impossível reproduzir regras ou ditar padrões rígidos de comportamentos que, em muitas vezes, significam o primeiro passo rumo ao fracasso da convivência dentro e fora da escola. ntretanto, pensar, discutir e praticar uma conduta ética é, sem dúvida, uma forma de cuidar e cuidar-se para que possamos vivenciar um mundo melhor. Limites claros e definidos consensualmente não devem ser vistos como barreiras ou obstáculos e sim como conquistas de cada aluno, para inserir-se num sistema formado por dois subsistemas: o dos deveres e o dos direitos dos estudantes.
