What are The Bishop’s School’s mission and core values?

Are you setting your sights on The Bishop’s School and want to know more beyond what it can offer academically? Well, what drives other families to this school is that it is driven by a mission to provide a rigorous college preparatory curriculum that not only challenges students’ minds but also helps them grow into individuals with a strong sense of what’s right and wrong. This is why Bishop’s School focuses on teaching integrity, respect, and empathy. Students learn integrity by teaching them to be honest and sticking to their principles in everything they do. Respect is learned by showing students how to value and treat everyone in the community with kindness. Then, there’s empathy, which helps students understand how other people might be feeling and helps them develop compassion and feel connected to others.

You might say that almost all other schools teach these values. But what makes The Bishop’s School different is that these values aren’t just abstract ideas. In fact, you’ll see them practiced in the classroom,  in the clubs and activities, and in how everyone interacts with each other. Ultimately, it’s all about shaping our students into well-rounded people who are not only smart but also have strong character and a sense of responsibility.
