Student Voice
At our core, we are about helping students develop their confident voice.
At Marin Horizon, we believe that…
Voice is formed…
when students are engaged in a vibrant learning experience,
with a rigorous and challenging curriculum,
that fosters intellectual curiosity,
to develop independent lifelong learners.
Voice is cultivated…
in a supportive environment where experimentation is encouraged,
failure is appreciated as a stepping-stone to success,
diversity of backgrounds and ideas are embraced,
to form confident, healthy relationships and a sense of belonging.
and
Voice becomes empowering…
when students take initiative to express their opinions,
engage in meaningful dialogs and debates,
inspiring empathy, understanding and collective action,
to create responsible, impactful leaders of tomorrow.
We believe - that when students find their confident voice, they do better, and change the world for the better.
