HARFORD DAY SCHOOL CORE VALUES
At Harford Day School, we value:
Empathy. We believe that understanding and respecting one another are essential to our shared future. We expect students to demonstrate this understanding and respect by using kind words and actions to interact with their peers and teachers
Perseverance. We believe that hard work and personal responsibility are necessary to progress in every realm of our lives. We expect students to demonstrate perseverance by working through conflict with resolution as the goal, by making the right choice when it's hard, and having the fortitude of character to forgive.
Integrity. We believe that speaking and acting with principle are the most powerful means through which we all may thrive. We expect students to demonstrate integrity by speaking and acting honestly, especially when it is hard; students are expected to own their mistakes and work towards restorative action.
Community. We believe that the connections among us provide wisdom and strength. We expect students to speak up when something is not right, to advocate for HDS’s mission and values with their peers, teachers, and families.
Growth. We believe that our ongoing growth as individuals fulfills an obligation to ourselves and to each other. We expect all students to make mistakes, and get into conflicts. We also expect them to partner with us as we support their growth and efforts to be the best they can be.
