The Einstein Philosophy of learning describes the Einstein approach to teaching and learning, both inside and outside the classroom.

1. We believe educational programs should center around:

1. • the values of citizenship, caring, responsibility, respect, fairness, and trustworthiness

   • creativity and innovation

   • sports, fitness, and a healthy lifestyle

   • fine arts and technology

   • service to others and community outreach

2. We believe students thrive in a secular educational setting where the Jewish universal values are used as a lens for establishing academic programs and school culture.

3. We believe in the worth of people without distinction of culture, gender, religion, economic situation, or level of education.

4. We believe an individual’s rights are perpetual; every right implies responsibilities; at the same time the common good should take precedence over individual interests.

5. We believe in a holistic education that progresses from play-based, through project-based, and culminates in research-based approaches to learning.

6. We believe in a culture of high expectations and striving for personal and academic excellence leads to higher achievement.

7. We believe every person truly feels fulfilled when dedicated to that which most motivates him/her.

8. We believe we have the responsibility to do our part to make the world a better place. (Tikkun Olam & Tzedakah)

9. We believe we best meet the needs of learners when we understand them as individuals and make them feel welcome and appreciated.

10. We believe the best learning takes place in an environment that is supportive and happy and housed in facilities that are functional, aesthetically pleasing, and sustainable
