Laurel High The School

“A school is a place where one learns about the totality, the wholeness of life. Academic excellence is absolutely necessary, but a school includes much more than that. It is a place where both the teacher and the student explore not only the outer world, the world of knowledge, but also their own thinking, their own behaviour.” J Krishnamurti We believe that there is a genius locked in every child. It is our aim to let the genius realize itself through the incomparable joy of learning. At Laurel High we diagnose this hidden potential right at the start. We have a well planned child-centric programme that is geared to educate(‘e-ducere’) that is, to ‘draw out’ this dormant genius in each child and enable him to grow as a leader. ROLE OF EDUCATION The educational process is basically a holy endeavour and should equip the child with the ability to differentiate between right and wrong, good and evil and to inculcate a life long desire for learning. Education must impart the basic knowledge foster wisdom, enhance creativity and hone one’s research skills so that the learner may grow and excel in whichever field he enters. It must broaden the heart and expand one’s capacity to exude love and care for all. It must open one’s mind to allow him to appreciate beauty and goodness in his environment. It must arouse the consciousness and inculcate the desired values. In short education should awaken the genius within and enable the learner to climb the ladder of achievement and find his/her niche in life OUR COMMITMENT Laurel High is committed to produce students with integrity, knowledge, wisdom and self-confidence, at the same time maintaining purity of speech, of sight, of learning and of action. We promise to change the mindsets of your children so that they have the ability to: “Watch their thoughts to enhance their speech. Watch their words to mould their actions, Watch their actions to improve their habits, Watch their habits to excel their character, Watch their character to fashion their destiny.”
