Our Credo

• What potentialities in human beings - children, teachers and ourselves - do we want to see develop?
• A zest for living that comes from taking in the world with all five senses alert
• Lively intellectual curiosities that turn the world into an exciting laboratory and keep one ever a learner
• Flexibility when confronted with change and ability to relinquish patterns that no longer fit the present
• The courage to work, unafraid and efficiently, in a world of new needs, new problems and new ideas
• Gentleness combined with justice in passing judgments on other human beings
• Sensitivity, not only to the external formal rights of the "other fellow" but to him as another human being seeking a good life through his own standards
• A striving to live democratically, in and out of schools, as the best way to advance our concept of democracy

• Our credo demands ethical standards as well as scientific attitudes. Our work is based on faith that human beings can improve the society they have created.
• Lucy Sprague Mitchell, Founder of Bank Street College of Education, 1916
