Welcome!
The beginning of each new school-year at Mazapan School gives me a fresh opportunity to view the world through the eyes of the newest and youngest generation of our students: the First Graders.
Each fall, I am privileged to witness and marvel at the eagerness and excitement for learning about the world, and the self- exploration that each pre-adolescent, adolescent and teenage student brings to the educational arena. Being surrounded by their vitality, energy and excitement provides me with an up-close view of trends, interests and influencing factors that determine their behavior and shapes their way of thinking. Their enthusiasm, creativity and sense of belonging, ownership and pride in their school, combined with the teachers’ dedication, optimism and commitment to excellence, is what continues to make Mazapan School the academic jewel of the Western Caribbean.
As a community of learners concerned with the affective and social development of our students, at the beginning of last year, we embarked upon the exciting voyage of implementing the Character Counts program. With the unwavering support and encouragement of parents and Board members, it was successfully launched and embraced enthusiastically by all stakeholders. The universally accepted values of trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship are now woven into, and addressed, in the daily life, lessons and activities of Mazapan School. Because as educators, we firmly believe that real education is what remains long after the students have forgotten what they were taught in the classrooms, our commitment is to insure that character development continues to stand side by side with academics as top priorities at this institution. Please accept our invitation of a virtual tour of our school, and come stroll through our tropical garden campus to learn what we are all about.
Sincerely,
Martha Counsil
Superintendent
