- We believe learning happens continuously and dynamically, and students learn best through inquiry-based instruction–learning by doing, making, exploring, tinkering, investigating, questioning, challenging, reflecting, presenting, wondering, and playing.
- We believe in the transformative power of a diverse and inclusive school community, local community, and global community, as students learn empathy through their interactions, experiences, and observations.
- We believe students of every faith are endowed with spiritual gifts and should have the space to deepen their relationship with God and to develop an appreciation of diverse religious traditions.
- We believe families are our partners in developing students’ sound minds, bodies, and spirits and join with the School to cultivate healthy, resilient, and engaged members of society.
- We believe that single-gender education promotes a culture of agency and empowers girls to become bold leaders, develops their confidence and ambition, and fosters interest in fields where women are underrepresented.
- We believe the Goals and Criteria of the Religious of the Sacred Heart of Mary and our Catholic identity strengthen our sacred responsibility to advocate for social justice and promote informed, mindful, and ethical decision-making.
