This year, we look forward to learning and growing together as we continue building a supportive and inspiring environment for every child. We are especially excited to introduce The HERD, a new framework that highlights the values we strive to live by each day:

• H – Honor: Do the right thing, keeping your promises, and show respect—even when no one is watching
• E – Effort: Give your best, even when something is hard. It's not about being perfect—it's about not giving up.
• R – Respect: Make safe choices for yourself and others, treat others the way you want to be treated. It means being kind, listening, and caring about people’s feelings, space, and things.
• D – Discover: Stay curious and dream big, find something new, learn something you didn’t know before, or understand something in a new way.

Through the HERD, we will encourage our students to lead with integrity, put forth their best effort, respect themselves and others, and embrace the joy of discovery.
