Principal’s Message
Scholars,
Welcome back to another school year at Hill-Freedman World Academy. We look forward to a year where we discover as a community what it is to be an international school under the guidance of our International Baccalaureate Middle Years and Diploma Programmes. Our school’s mission has not changed:
Our mission is to provide a rigorous academic learning environment that fosters lifelong learners who are committed to being knowledgeable, caring and internationally-minded citizens.
Our ultimate goal is provide each of you a safe place to learn, ask questions and discover your gifts. As a Hill-Freedman student we want to open your minds to the world to prepare you for the 21st century job market. Some of the skills and understandings you will need include: intergroup empathy, valuing diversity, environmental sustainability, and a felt responsibility to act for the betterment of the world.
Finally, I encourage each of you to seek out a staff member in the building to serve as a safety net for times when you need someone to listen to you and provide guidance and support.
Have a great 2017-2018 school year.
Anthony Majewski
Head of School/Principal
