SUMMARY

The School´s philosophy expressed in its Ideario describes the type of interactions between community members that will provide a loving and caring environment in which students can develop and thrive. We believe that positive relationships based in values such as respect, trust, openness, solidarity will create the conditions for each member of our community to feel accepted and valued. The surveys´ results provide consistent evidence of how this is a strength in our community. We still need to work on providing more specific moments within instructional staff working hours to increase peer collaboration and encourage sharing of best practices. One of the aspects we had detected in the 2016 survey that needed improvement was communication. Parents and staff claimed that there was an overload of information. Important messages weren’t being read. In 2018 we implemented a new communication platform, Handing. Among its many positive characteristics, this platform has a friendlier format, allows for more personalization in each communication, provides a space to clearly state the intention for each communication (inform, invite, assign a task) and promotes feedback which helps make messages more efficient by immediately showing feedback. Although we are still adjusting its implementation, parents have valued the change as a positive one as expressed in the 2018 survey.
