LEARN

WITH PURPOSE

(DEVELOPING POTENTIAL)
We believe life is a continuous process of learning as life changes, we must be able to acquire the knowledge and skills needed to adapt and grow. We must practice and apply what we learn to be able to navigate life.

LEAD

WITH HEART

(BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS)
We have a responsibility to discover a plan for our lives and help others with theirs. Trusting relationships help you know when to lead and when to follow. Knowing how to set a plan and move in a direction is a key to individual and collective success. Living a purposeful life in this way moves us from dependence to independence to interdependence.

SERVE

WITH PASSION

(NURTURING COMPASSION)
We treat people with kindness, honesty and integrity. Encouraging students to positively contribute to their communities builds empathy and compassion. We must increase student awareness of community needs and local or global issues. Service-learning partnerships are collaborative, mutually beneficial and help students address community needs.

Our Third Grade students spent the last two months exploring “Weather and Climate” in sicence. Climate change stopped being a concept on a page, it became something we could see, measure, and feel in our own school and city. 🏙️⛅

The answer was right in front of us: Our sports courts flood every time heavy rains hit. A real problem, a real challenge, and a real opportunity to learn.
And so we participated in our first ever Family STEM DAY to ideate possible solutions together! 🌧️🧩

At Altamira, STEM is not a subject, it’s a way of thinking and acting in the world. It’s science that asks questions, technology that seeks solutions, engineering that builds answers, and mathematics that holds it all together. It’s purposeful learning, connected to real life, to our community, and to the challenges of our planet. 📐👨🏻‍🔬🌎

Nuestros estudiantes de Tercer Grado pasaron los últimos dos meses explorando “Clima y Tiempo” en la clase de ciencias. El cambio climático dejó de ser un concepto en una página; se convirtió en algo que podíamos ver, medir y sentir en nuestro propio colegio y ciudad. 🏙️⛅

La respuesta estaba justo frente a nosotros: nuestras canchas deportivas se inundan cada vez que llegan lluvias fuertes. Un problema real, un desafío real y una oportunidad real para aprender.
¡Y así participamos en nuestro primer Family STEM DAY para idear posibles soluciones juntos! 🌧️🧩

En Altamira, STEM no es una materia, es una forma de pensar y actuar en el mundo. Es la ciencia que formula preguntas, la tecnología que busca soluciones, la ingeniería que construye respuestas y las matemáticas que lo sostienen todo. Es un aprendizaje con propósito, conectado con la vida real, con nuestra comunidad y con los desafíos de nuestro planeta. 📐👨🏻‍🔬🌎

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Parenting Power Session: El ejemplo también educa 📱✨

Extendemos una invitación especial a todos nuestros padres de familia de Primaria y Secundaria a nuestra próxima Parenting Power Session con Eulises Domínguez, psicólogo clínico, donde podrán vivir un espacio de reflexión y aprendizaje sobre un tema clave en la formación de nuestros hijos. 💞

En esta sesión abordaremos la importancia de la manera en que los padres nos comportamos en redes sociales y cómo estas conductas influyen directamente en el clima emocional y relacional de nuestros estudiantes dentro del entorno escolar. 🧒🏻👦🏼

Porque educar también significa modelar con coherencia, responsabilidad y respeto, tanto dentro como fuera de la escuela. 🏫📚

Los esperamos para seguir construyendo juntos una comunidad más consciente y fortalecida. 💙
