Where 爱 and Learning Meet
Advancing Whole Child Education
爱tt believes that education isn’t just about a destination—rather, it’s about a journey of hands-on experiences that deepen cognitive, 情感, and 社会 skills while inspiring an enduring enthusiasm for learning.
Our approach to education is guided by the values of our founder, Mrs. 伊娃·爱德华兹·皇冠官网网站—an innovative educator who emphasized whole-child development, education through doing, and joyful learning. Almost 100 years later, our continuing mission is to provide unique experiences that inspire an enduring enthusiasm for learning and to graduate young people of honor, 信仰, 和智慧.
Our work differs from that of other 亚特兰大 schools in its purposes, its methods, and its philosophy. Our emphasis is upon the individual child—their 个性, their needs. The development of their varied abilities, 字符, 个性, and satisfactory adjustment are our chief concerns. We seek to know each child as thoroughly as we can, through observation of their activities—both work and play—and the study of their attitudes and habits. We invite freedom of expression, we encourage a critical, questioning attitude, we are eager for independence of thought and action.伊娃·爱德华兹·皇冠官网网站创始人

Whole Child Education
Whole Child Education at 爱tt is the active construction of knowledge using multiple modalities to build cognitive, 社会, and 情感 skills and to motivate individual passion, 自我发现, and collective purpose.
Whole child education has been the foundation of our curriculum from the School’s beginning in 1926. 我们的创始人, 伊娃·爱德华兹·皇冠官网网站, envisioned an intentionally different way to learn—where children learn by doing and are taught how to think instead of what to think. Her approach was “to teach children to think for themselves, to recognize a problem and think it through, to develop their judgment, to decide for themselves, to accept responsibility.”
爱tt is advancing whole child education with emphasis on learning by doing and joyful learning. Through purposeful hands-on classroom opportunities, community experiences, and service learning, our students balance intellectual rigor with 字符 development, relationship building, 和自我发现. We center the needs of our students beyond traditional academics, motivating them to develop the intellect and confidence to thrive in school and in life.
