Philosophy

The pedagogical proposal of Izabela Hendrix is guided by the Brazilian Plan for the Life and Mission of the Church, which orients its schools to an educational work that contributes for the holistic formation of the student, in the physical, emotional, social and cognitive aspects.

In the academic area, our work contemplates pedagogical strategies that are effective in the production of knowledge in a contextualized way: development of contents through researches, analyses, critics, debates and seminaries, field works, integrated activities, projects, culture fairs and others.
