“From the development of the project – explain the teachers – Two essential elements emerged:
• I study to know, I know to respect
• If we are united we can do a lot for ourselves, for others and for the environment.
At the basis of the teaching work, which gave birth to wonderful results, there was a weekly program for parallel classes which favored continuous and constant discussion between teachers and the valorisation of all the school staff, whose professionalism is a fundamental element to achieve the set objectives”.
