Our core values of Growth, Respect, Integrity, and Teamwork— together forming GRIT—define who we are and guide our community.
GRIT represents the essence of our values and the foundations of what we teach students. It reflects the strength of character and determination needed to overcome challenges, achieve goals, and continuously strive for personal and collective success. These values underpin our commitment to creating learning environments where students are healthy, happy, engaged, and successful.
- Growth encourages personal development, goal-setting, and learning from challenges to build resilience.
- Respect emphasizes active listening, polite interactions, and valuing others’ personal space, promoting a sense of belonging and community.
- Integrity inspires honesty, accountability, and ethical actions, ensuring that students act with reliability and fairness.
- Teamwork highlights the importance of collaboration, mutual support, and resolving conflicts constructively to achieve shared success.
