Our Core Beliefs
At North Heights Community School, our core beliefs are centered around the HEIGHTS—Honor, Empathy, Innovation, Growth, Humility, Teamwork, and Success. These guiding principles shape the way we engage with our students, our staff, and our community, creating a positive, inclusive, and dynamic environment for learning and leading.
Honor
We believe in acting with integrity and respect towards others.
We honor each individual by fostering a culture of respect, ensuring that everyone feels valued and appreciated for their contributions to our MicroSociety. Students learn to treat others with dignity, recognizing the importance of integrity in all their interactions.
Empathy
We understand and share the feelings of others.
We build a compassionate school community where students and staff are encouraged to empathize with others. By understanding different perspectives, we cultivate a supportive environment where everyone feels heard and respected.
Innovation
We create new ideas and solutions to make things better.
As a MicroSociety school, we promote innovation in every aspect of learning. Teachers are dedicated, lifelong learners who inspire students to think creatively and solve real-world problems, preparing them to be future-ready leaders and innovators.
Growth
We strive for continuous improvement and learning.
Students progress at different paces and in unique ways. Our learning environment supports personalized growth, celebrating both small and large achievements. Every student has the potential to grow academically and personally, with the guidance of committed teachers.
Humility
We recognize our strengths while staying open to learning from others.
Humility allows us to foster a culture of collaboration. Students and staff alike acknowledge their strengths but remain open to new ideas and perspectives. By embracing a humble approach, we build a learning community where everyone contributes to and benefits from the shared experience.
Teamwork
We work together towards common goals.
Teamwork is essential for success, both inside and outside the classroom. We value collaboration among students, teachers, parents, and community members, building partnerships that support learning and foster a sense of belonging and family. Together, we achieve more.
Success
We achieve our goals through hard work and perseverance.
Success is earned through dedication, effort, and resilience. Students are empowered to set goals, take ownership of their achievements, and persist through challenges. Teachers support this by creating an engaging learning environment where students are motivated to succeed.
At North Heights Community School, the beliefs of The HEIGHTS guide how we discover, learn, and lead within our MicroSociety. Together, we cultivate a community of visionary leaders, innovators, and compassionate citizens who will shape a brighter tomorrow.
