CORE VALUES
Excellence. Community. Heart. Opportunity.
Our school community operates in excellence at every level (students and adults), in and outside of the classroom. No matter what role we play, we embody excellence and integrity.
We value and honor every person in our school community. We are committed to learning about ourselves and others, and our place in the local, state, national and global communities. We continuously explore and excavate our gifts in order to generate solutions for our ever changing world.
We operate with love. Our heart for the people in our school community, love of wonder, love of discovery, and a love of lifelong learning drive our daily interactions. Our school community is joyful, because we honor ourselves, our creativity, and our character. We believe that education should be a joyful experience!
We value a learning environment that is relevant and purposeful, that is not limited to the walls of the school building, that encourages meaningful collaborative experiences with partners across disciplines and industries, and where learning leads to empowering opportunities for all members of our school community.
Mission
We embrace, embolden, and engage the natural curiosity and gifts of learners to empower them to become responsible and just global citizens, equipped to understand, critique, influence, solve problems for, and lead an ever-changing world.
Vision
At our best, our values of Excellence, Community, Heart, and Opportunity will be evident in every aspect of our daily school experience. Our K-12 community will serve as an exemplar of our six key elements: project-based learning, place-based education, global education, competency-based education, postsecondary readiness, and all-inclusive wellness. We will intentionally live out our motto: Inspired by possibility, powered by community, as we authentically engage families, community partners, industry experts, and higher education officials to offer our students a richly relevant and deep learning experience. Our students will graduate well-equipped to enter their postsecondary pathway of choice, having demonstrated mastery of the competencies and learning outcomes that all students must know and be able to do to thrive in life beyond high school.
