CORE BELIEFS
PHILOSOPHY AND GUIDING PRINCIPLES
The Winnetka Public Schools have a long history of innovation. Our superintendent, Carlton Washburne, was a pioneer of progressive education along with John Dewey and Francis Parker. The principle of learning by doing is a time honored belief that we continue to foster. The IDEA Lab brings this concept to the forefront. While the content may evolve, the fundamental approaches persist. The IDEA Lab is a place where students will meet new technology and use it to understand the constantly evolving world around them.
