It becomes mandatory to have a whole-school design, involving a comprehensive and continuing effort to realize and implement these four essential elements in an integrated manner. It is the educator's responsibility to construct a program that engages and motivates students to invest their talents, energy, and enthusiasm in completing their schoolwork in an exemplary manner. This model shall help faculty regard every child as a unique, valued and vital member of the school community. Individual attention in the form of one-on-one tutoring, intensive counseling and individualized goals is the key to motivating our students.

   

   The educational innovations that shall distinguish this school from other schools:

   The model explained above shall provide students with a positive learning experience so that they shall be able to realize some degree of success in academic pursuits. They shall be provided with opportunities to expand their mental and physical abilities in wholesome, socially accepted activities. Students and teachers consider themselves partners in the students' educational program, where there shall be mutual respect and support. SST believes that addressing students' successes and failures are equally important for the students' growth. Thought and expression develop out of experience.  Learning should nurture a sense of caring for other people and the environment.  Ultimately learning should be fun.

   

   Students' attitude towards learning greatly influences the effectiveness of any educational strategies or techniques. SST will offer character development courses and activities in order to equip its students with a positive attitude which will in turn improve students' achievements.

Integrated in the learning process shall be diverse instructional technology, such as most recent audio-visual materials, and state-of-art computer systems as these would be essential difference in our education plan. Classes shall be furnished with multimedia oriented computers and other visual and audio devices. We believe that exposure to computer at an early age shall lead students to establish a technology oriented education in their future.

 

   Recognizing that educational success shall be realized only when the essential underlying triad of s student-teacher-parent/guardian is in harmony, the mission of the SST is to create a partnership among this triad that shall provide our youth with the support necessary to reach their highest potential - intellectually, socially, emotionally and physically.

The educational vision and innovation crucial to accomplishing this mission are organized under two main headings: specific elements and whole-school design. 

 

   The specific design elements fall into five categories:

• Financing; governance, leadership, and staffing;

• parent and com

• rigorous curricula, instruction, and appropriate assessment;

• munity involvement;

• instructional technology and multimedia
