About:
Sabin school offers a unique learning environment for all students. We are a culturally diverse campus with children from all over the world! Students learn through a variety of different instructional modalities: differentiated instruction in core curriculum, Art, Music, Drama and Spanish. We feel strongly that all students are capable of learning and being successful and that our goal is to provide them with the instruction and support that they need. Students learn instruction through International Baccalaureate Programme (IB). IB gives the students the opportunity to learn through internationally minded units of inquiry. Our goal is to create students to become critical thinkers who are passionate about developing plans of action who will transform the community and world into becoming a better place for all people. Teachers work collaboratively each Monday to analyze student data, share instructional strategies, and support student achievement. We feel strongly that all students have the right to a positive and nurturing learning environment where they can maximize their potential and develop a passion for education.
