Sibley East Elementary

At Sibley East Elementary School we aspire to create a place with a safe and healthy environment for all members of our community, where all staff and students have a growth mindset, where we develop the potential to think creatively, critically, and effectively, and where we can all feel connected. At Sibley East Elementary, we believe all students learn best...

• in a positive, safe environment that encourages risk taking and decision making
• through dialoguing
• when self-esteem is high
• by doing
• by practicing reading writing, speaking, listening and thinking
• when motivated
• at different rates
• from each other
• when experiences address different learning styles
• when skills are taught within meaningful context.
• when provided with ownership and responsibility for their learning
• when knowledge is related to life experiences.
