To educate the unlimited human potential for life-long learning
by cultivating the inspiration to question and by challenging
our students to achieve academic excellence.

We pledge to do this through nurturing:

*Peaceful interaction and respect
of oneself, the environment,
and the world community.

*Mastery of one's innate curiosity,  
in balance with the necessary
discipline of study and learning.

*Empowerment within a safe          
environment for risk-taking,
growing, and learning.

*Independence of thought and    
deed in harmony with
self-responsibility.
