Our mission is to empower our community to become knowledgeable, inquiring, open-minded, life-long learners by fostering caring relationships and celebrating our rich diversity. We aspire to transform lives through a socially just, inclusive, and globally enriched educational environment rooted in empathy and compassion.
There will be no hybrid or virtual options offered this year as we recognize the academic and mental health challenges students face as a result of the isolation, loss, and trauma of the pandemic this past year and a half. All students will start the day at 8:25 am (compared to 7:45 am pre-pandemic).
