• An academics first policy which has led to our unbroken tradition of 100% 4-year college acceptance.
• School-wide recognition and positive peer reinforcement for individual achievement.
• Mastery of written and spoken language through two periods of English each day, ancient and modern language requirements, and Spanish beginning in preschool.
• The courteous manner in which the community members are expected to conduct themselves both in and out of school, on the field of play, and as ambassadors of our school.
