AN ENVIRONMENT OF MUTUAL RESPECT
Unruly or disrespectful students can disrupt the learning process
not only for themselves, but for other students as well. Time spent
controlling such behavior is time spent not teaching or learning.
For the Academy to succeed in its mission, everyone associated with
the school must strive to work together, even in the face of disagreements,
with an attitude of mutual respect. For students, this primarily
implies a positive attitude and effort toward their academic achievement
and a respectful, compassionate attitude towards others.
