Character

Students will gain experiences that will help them become well-rounded, contributing members of our community and attain life skills that are needed for future success. With a focus on leadership, students learn how to be effective communicators, be more compassionate, contribute to positive morale (behaviorally, academically, and emotionally), take risks, and persevere in overcoming challenges.
