Student Well Being
Find out how White Sands School nurtures student well-being through a growth mindset, peer support, and a caring community that helps every student thrive.
Objectives:
Develop every White Sandian to achieve their personal best and strive for success
Develop a growth mindset in our students that enables them to be confident when approaching tasks and to turn challenges into opportunities
Rationale:
Student well-being program is anchored in our Student-Well-being Framework that seeks to develop every White Sandian to achieve their personal best and strive for success.
The framework is anchored in our belief that it takes a village to raise a child and that every White Sandian has the potential to succeed if there is a collective and systematic effort and a positive school culture. We hope to develop a growth mindset in our students that enables them to be confident when approaching tasks and to turn challenges into opportunities. Over time, a growth mindset will ensure that students are adaptable and flexible to change and growth.
The school motto of ‘Learn Grow Excel Together’ represents how students, staff and stakeholders can rally together to bring out the best in our students’ potential through a well-rounded and holistic education amidst a caring and inclusive environment in pursuit of excellence.
Peer Support and Relationships
Communicate, Coordinate, Collaborate!
For students to flourish (feel good and do good), respectful relationships and a learning community that is positive, inclusive and resilient are essential. Through consistent communication among all students, parents and teachers, coordinated school initiatives and collaboration within and outside of school, we aim to engage the hearts and minds of our students and promote and protect their holistic health.
