Education is not the filling of a bucket, but the lighting of a fire. -W.B. Yeats
 

Wilder's Preparatory Academy Charter School is dedicated to providing excellence in education for all students. Our focus embraces a strong research based college preparatory curriculum.

 

My Educational Philosophy

 

It is my belief that all students are capable of learning.  A child’s learning institution should be a safe haven, free of prejudices because of race, gender, ethnicity, social class, and physical or mental disabilities.  The educator’s responsibility is to increase the learning capacity of their students through inquiry, research, and discussion to satisfy each student’s learning needs.  Students should feel empowered by their environment to promote their own learning.

 

Physical education significantly contributes to students’ well being.  Therefore, it is an instructional priority for Wilder’s Preparatory Academy Charter School and an integral part of our students’ educational experience.  According to Jack O’Connell, State Superintendent of Education, high quality physical education instruction contributes to good health, develops fundamental and advanced motor skills, improves students’ self-confidence, and provides opportunities for increased levels of physical fitness that are associated with high academic achievement.
