Mindful Community School is committed to offering an up-to-date, quality, educational program. Our curriculum contains clearly defined expectations for student learning, based on Core Common Standards, MCrel, Bville, The National Council of Teachers Performance Standards and the Dominican Republic mandated curricula. Consequently, the school provides a highly constructive and competitive college preparatory program that meets the performance standards of universities both in the United States and in the Dominican Republic.
The academic courses aim to expand and integrate knowledge, and to develop personal and social skills through active participation in meaningful learning experiences, real world experiences, problem based learning, and research, which are all aligned with the school’s vision and mission statements.
