The CMIS Learning Overview
Our Four Pillars of Learning
We believe learning occurs:
With a strong, diverse community that cultivates a sense of belonging.
With rigorous, authentic, relevant, and culturally responsive curricula.
When we all embrace a growth mindset; we learn and grow from our mistakes.
When students experience productive struggle through appropriate challenges.
Students at the Heart of Everything
As a PreK to 12 school, we are committed to nurturing each learner’s personal and academic growth while equipping them with the skills and mindset to succeed far beyond graduation. Our curriculum, guided by American educational standards and shaped by best practices, provides a strong foundation for every student to grow, explore, and thrive.
Developing Courageous Learners
Students at CMIS develop as Courageous Learners by taking ownership of their learning journey. We foster environments that encourage curiosity, creativity, and risk-taking. Through meaningful and well-designed learning opportunities, educators help students build strong work habits, collaborate effectively, and grow into independent, adaptable thinkers ready to face challenges with confidence.
Responsible Global Citizens
We also help students grow as Responsible Global Citizens, supporting them in developing integrity, empathy, and a deep respect for people of all backgrounds. Through intentional experiences, service learning, and the strength of our caring Christian community, students build cultural awareness and are inspired to take meaningful action both within their local context and in the wider world.
