    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.

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.

    Colégio Itapuca, South America
  Av. Ernani de Farias Alves, 124 - Região Oceânica - 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.

A Educação que apresenta como alicerce, os pilares franciscanos tem, na sua própria essência, um marco diferencial. A promoção da vida, a conscientização ecológica, a valorização da minoridade, a aceitação das diferenças, o cuidar e o acolher são fontes que alimentam nosso Projeto Educativo.
Diferente da concepção hegemônica de cultura como instrumento de massificação, o Colégio busca transforma-se num espaço privilegiado de promoção sociocultural. Por meio de seleção de conteúdos relevantes, contribuímos para que se discuta e se promova a cultura como centro gerador de transformação social.
A afetividade ressignifica o nosso fazer pedagógico. Propomos a Educação que seja provocativa, criativa, pautada na reciprocidade das áreas de conhecimento, no respeito e na inclusão responsável. A proposta Pedagógica é constantemente transformada pelos Projetos elaborados nas diferentes áreas, de forma que todos possam ensinar e aprender conhecimento, fundamentos de cidadania de democracia e do convívio social.
