School Mission
The school has "holistic education" as its philosophy, with "Faith, Hope, Love" (「信、望、愛」) as its motto. The school is committed to the provision of a comprehensive range of quality education services, which aims to promote the moral (德), intellectual (智), physical (體), social (群), aesthetic (美) and spiritual (靈) development of the students.
As the ability of the students, the English capability of the teachers and the relevant supporting strategies are above the required standard, the EMB has given us approval to continue using English as the medium of instruction since 1998.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or mission:
“Nevertheless, no school can work well for children if parents and teachers do not act in partnership on behalf of the children’s best interests. Parents have every right to understand what is happening to their children at school, and teachers have the responsibility to share that information without prejudicial judgment.... Such communication, which can only be in a child’s interest, is not possible without mutual trust between parent and teacher.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
“... [a] girl one day flared out and told the principal “the only mission opening before a girl in his school was to marry one of those candidates [for the ministry].” He said he didn’t know but it was. And when at last that same girl announced her desire and intention to go to college it was received with about the same incredulity and dismay as if a brass button on one of those candidate’s coats had propounded a new method for squaring the circle or trisecting the arc.”
—Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)
