SCLS has always prioritized respecting each child's needs and encouraging students to learn and reach their full potential. SCLS's school motto is “Foster excellence in yourself and others, and build a better world." The core value of the International Elementary School, PRIDE, is a great extension and realization of this. All teaching and learning activities at the IDPS are centered around PRIDE. Each student is expected to show pride in all parts of the school, not only in the hallways and classrooms but especially when they are playing and enjoying themselves outside.
宋庆龄学校一直以来将尊重每个孩子的个人需求放在首位，鼓励学生学习和充分发挥其潜力，宋校的宗旨是把最宝贵的东西给予儿童，而国际部小学的核心价值观——PRIDE便是其很好的延申和落地，国际部小学所有教学活动都围绕着PRIDE展开，希望每个同学在学校的所有地方都要表现出自豪感，不仅在走廊上和教室里，尤其是当他们在外面玩耍和享乐的时候。
