OUR VISION

Equitable Opportunities. Extraordinary Experiences.

 

 

OUR MISSION

Caring Community Members [One Love +  One Community]

We’re one community and there’s a special bond we have on the island.
We’re all different, but we work hard to understand, celebrate, and learn from each other.
It’s cool to be kind, and here, there’s nothing but love.

Courageous Learners [Confident in our Abilities + Fearless in the Face of Failure]

We’re confident in our abilities. If we’re not great at something—yet!—we keep working at it.
We’re not afraid to take risks, and when we fail, we learn from it.
We keep trying, because we’re not afraid of getting knocked down.
We always get back up. Stronger.

Confident Leaders [We Own Our Actions + We Lead Our Academic Journeys]

We’re confident in who we are and we know we’re in control of how we show up each day.
We manage our emotions and regulate our behaviors.
We are the leaders of our academic journeys—we own our learning and advocate for what we need to ensure we’re on track for unlimited choices for the future.
