Vision

A dynamic school that thinks and cares.

Mission

We nurture citizens of character with the passion to contribute and excel.

Philosophy

Evergreen Secondary School is guided by our Vision, Mission and Values to nurture our students to become Caring Leaders and Thinking Citizens. We believe every student who aspires to do well can succeed if given the right support from teachers and parents. Thus we recognise the importance of forging effective partnerships with our parents in addition to building a team of dedicated and competent teachers. In preparing our students for the challenges of the 21st Century, we believe it is of utmost importance to design a forward-looking curriculum undergirded by sound values. Hence, in our school, we adopt a school-wide approach in which character and citizenship education is integrated into all instructional programmes and CCA programmes.

The school's Applied Learning Programme aims to develop Effective Communicators, Caring Leaders and Inventive Thinkers through a 3-year Communication Skills Programme. Through this programme, students develop deep analytical and critical thinking skills, collaborative skills and oratorical skills through Effective Reading, Debates and Presentations. Talent development programmes such as the Model United Nations, e-Journalism and the Odyssey of the Mind Competition, allow students to further hone their interest. The school's Learning for Life Programme (LLP) is a 4/5-year programme that focuses on Strengthening Resilience, Character and Leadership through Sports Education. With this programme, the school aims to nurture all students to become thinking and caring leaders who take personal responsibility for maintaining an active and healthy lifestyle. Students will be exposed to a broad-based PE curriculum and authentic applications of lessons on resilience and leadership through outdoor programmes, CCA and partnerships with external agencies. To nurture community engagement, the school has a comprehensive Sec 1-4 Service Learning structure. This approach empowers students to participate in learning experiences that are tailored to levels to internalise values, sharpen leadership skills and develop critical thinking competencies. The school also offers a structured Science and Technology Research Programme (STRP) to stretch the potential of our students, by providing them with opportunities to work on research projects under the guidance of dedicated teachers. This equips them with research skills, analytical skills and presentation skills.
