His Legacy
 

 

 

 

In keeping with the legacy of its namesake, a deep commitment to civil and human rights permeates the School’s curriculum, its behavioral policies, and its community of parents, students, teachers, and friends.  The School fosters citizenship awareness and cultivates respect for the voices that reflect the diversity found in the Northeast Kingdom, the nation, and the globe.  The School uses Orientation Week to introduce the values that guide behavioral expectations. Small group discussions focus on issues of bullying, stereotyping, and prejudice to help students recognize harmful behavior and to offer ways to eliminate it.
