Why are students expected to engage in meditation, yoga and other spiritual practices?
Because we believe in teaching the whole child, we believe that we need to work to help them get to know their inner selves.Helping them learn how to relax, sharpen their focus and call on inner reserves all go together to engage them on a variety of levels. We do not promote nor require the children to adopt anything for which they feel an interference with their personal beliefs, but we do try to expose them to the pieces of these practices that can be used no matter what they believe.
