Just as Confucius, Buddha, and Lao Tzu interpreted the essence of life in different ways, each providing a unique philosophical attitude – our educational institutions take different approaches to instructing our youth.
Diverse instructional approaches provide students with opportunities to learn and grow.

Students have diverse needs, values, and ways of operating. As you well know, students can act out at different times for different reasons. Being able to recognize personality patterns in your students can provide clues when trouble may be heading your way.
