Monthly Spiritual Themes


readingbuddy8

 The school's motto , "Seek and speak truth and love," conveys a ommitment to two core values -- to be regularly open to these values and to live by them.  Weekly, each school division gathers for Meeting for Worship. This creates opportunities for silent worship, inward reflection, and/or the sharing of insights. Each month a different spiritual theme is highlighted and incorporated into the curriculum and discussed at Meeting for Worship.
