Each week our scholars are introduced to a new learner profile. These character traits are specifically taught, modeled, and referenced throughout the week. The traits are based upon the International Baccalaureate Learner Profiles and along with our core values, they are posted in each classroom on campus. It is our expectation that our scholars are:
- Inquirers, developing a natural curiosity for learning and researching
- Knowledgeable, exploring concepts and ideas, issues of local and global significance
- Thinkers, exercising initiative in applying thinking skills critically and creatively
- Communicators, expressing ideas effectively in various modes
- Principled, acting with honesty and integrity
- Open-Minded, appreciating the cultures and ideas of others, exhibiting a sense of fairness and justice
- Caring, showing empathy, respect, and compassion for others
- Risk-takers, approaching unfamiliar situations and uncertainty with courage and forethought
- Balanced, understanding the importance of intellectual, physical, and emotional equilibrium
- Reflective, giving thoughtful consideration to their own learning experience
