CALVERTON MISSION
Fostering a culture of respect, high expectations, and shared experiences, The Calverton School instills in students intellectual curiosity, personal responsibility, and a strong work ethic to prepare them for higher education and responsible citizenship a democratic and global community.
CALVERTON PHILOSOPHY
Within a supportive environment, The Calverton School provides: an allegiance to a rigorous academic curriculum; a commitment to service to the community; a dedication to health, athletics, and physical well-being; and a fostering of an active appreciation of the arts. Calverton strives to create a safe and encouraging atmosphere within which the community of learners engages in continual self-evaluation and reflection.
A spirit of honor guides all members to develop personal virtues of honesty, tolerance, mutual respect, and regard for the thoughts and feelings of others. All are challenged to make choices, to be accountable for them, and to be responsible for the effect of those choices both on themselves and on the entire School community.
All members of the community are expected to be active learners. Calverton offers a dynamic, broad-based and developmentally appropriate program in the liberal arts, enabling all to cultivate intellectual curiosity, persistence, and self-discipline to pursue learning to its fullest and, in doing so, to develop a life-long love for learning. Through this pursuit and through the acquisition of the habits of mind and the learner profile, students prepare themselves for college and, more importantly, for life in a democratic and global society.
