Mission Statement
Make children’s learning a transformative experience. Through a holistic educational program, Trū engages its students on a quest for understanding and connection to others that will continue throughout life. In collaborative work with adults and peers across a range of ages, our students learn to adopt widely varying perspectives, different from their own. We use mindfulness and conscious relaxation techniques to encourage emotional intelligence, calmness, and well-being. Surrounded by a nurturing culture where they are known well, children learn to express empathy. We act on the power of diversity and inclusion to create a more just community. Trū designs integrated, cross-disciplinary studies, in which children develop a sense of open-ended curiosity. We offer real life experiences that stimulate a growth mindset, where success is seen as a result of sustained effort. Our students enter reflective discussions to cultivate their ability to perceive and question assumptions, and to gain knowledge and awareness of themselves. Trū produces high-quality stage performances to give children lasting attitudes of confidence and self-efficacy. Trū leads children on a journey toward greater versions of themselves.
About This Cause
Trū is an independent, progressive K-5 school near downtown Palo Alto. Academics are supported by direct, extended research and experimentation by students. Encounters with the outside world provide real life experience. Social emotional learning is embedded in every activity, by teachers with personal understanding of each child. The program is carefully designed to develop a mindset of growth and opportunity that will lead children to deeper, richer, and more meaningful lives.
