Liderazgo en educación

LM is Rooted in Christ, and we want students to grow not just in knowledge, but in faith, character, and develop great friendships too. We want students to leave LM ready to serve, make peace, and use their gifts wherever God calls them—at home, in our community, and around the world.

LM welcomes students, families, employees and board members who share a commitment to its purpose. As a community, we are guided by and recognize the LM Core Values, Mission, and Vision Statements, the Mennonite Education Agency 15 Faith Practice Statements, and the Confession of Faith in a Mennonite Perspective (1995). Ultimately, these guiding documents regard the Scripture as the trustworthy standard for Christian faith and life.

DISCIPLINA RESTAURATIVA

Lancaster Mennonite La escuela está comprometida con un enfoque restaurativo en lugar de punitivo para la disciplina que incluye asesoramiento, disculpas, oración, reconciliación y participación de los padres. La disciplina restaurativa se basa en una motivación de amor para ayudar a cada niño a conformarse a la imagen de Jesús. Sin embargo, las decisiones de los estudiantes determinan las consecuencias, positivas o negativas, y creemos que los estudiantes deben aceptar la responsabilidad de su comportamiento.
