Mulgrave School
Mulgrave School, located in West Vancouver, British Columbia, is a co-educational, independent IB World School for students from Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12 (ages 3–18).
The academic programme at Mulgrave is based on the mission statement put forward by the International Baccalaureate Organization that states as follows: The International Baccalaureate aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. To this end the organization works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programmes of international education and rigorous assessment. These programmes encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.
The school also has its own mission statement: “Inspiring Excellence in Education and Life.” The statement is further supported by the school’s vision, which asserts that “by inspiring excellence – the continuous pursuit of personal best – in education and life, Mulgrave strives to equip lifelong learners to thrive in a culturally diverse and interdependent world and to embrace, with passion and confidence, their responsibility always to do their best to support others and to make a difference by serving their communities, both locally and in the world at large.”

Famous quotes containing the word school:
“We are all adult learners. Most of us have learned a good deal more out of school than in it. We have learned from our families, our work, our friends. We have learned from problems resolved and tasks achieved but also from mistakes confronted and illusions unmasked. . . . Some of what we have learned is trivial: some has changed our lives forever.”
—Laurent A. Daloz (20th century)
