Honor Above All.

The Honor Code represents the highest ideals of moral development, integrity, and achievement, as well as respect for the ideas, work and property of others. Second, the Honor Code represents the School's commitment to fostering integrity and to teaching and promoting honor and trust within our community.

It has been said, "The Honor System belongs to the students."
