Values Statement
The Bolles Community strives to reflect in each of our lives respect for the individual. We embrace this philosophy and teach our students that a civilized culture (all that is truly great in human life – in art, in music, in literature, in science, and in technology) represents the achievements of honest, thoughtful, and often highly learned individuals. The sharing of ideas, ideals, and accomplishments with one another brings mutual respect and often mutual advantage. The success of such people develops highly desirable personal values such as generosity, honesty, hard work, sharing attitudes, high ethical standards, and pride in community.
We recognize the unique opportunity we have to encourage moral growth, and we believe these values reflect our shared philosophy:
- Respect—for the property and opinions of others
- Responsibility for ones actions—self discipline and accountability
- Hard Work—to achieve mental and physical excellence
- Concern for Others—especially for those less fortunate
- Pride—in our community
