Mission StatementWe enable our students to make a positive difference in their communities by:
Interpersonal & Technical SkillsBeacon Hill Academy provides students with a practical education that enables them to find gainful employment immediately after graduation. English fluency, computer literacy, and the ability to function in an office environment are all key skills required in today's workplace and are therefore included in our program. In addition to these technical skills, students also learn how to work together as a team toward common goals, using differences in class, religion or ethnicity as strengths. Critical ThinkingHowever, Beacon Hill is more than just a vocational school. Since most students are unable to attend university, we also aim to increase their general knowledge of the world and their ability to think critically about issues that are relevant to their lives. Our goal is to help students to develop confidence, strong ethics and independent thinking skills so that they can become leaders in their communities and workplaces. Community ServiceFinally, our hope is that all of the above will be joined together with a desire to serve the community and use what they've been given to make a difference in other people's lives, not just their own. This idea is summed up in our school motto: "Live a dream. Make a difference." |
