Buddy Program
Our Buddy Program is one of the most endearing and beloved aspects of school life for our students and knits together our community ever closer.
Each grade partners with another grade and each student with another student. For Lower School children, it’s a precious opportunity to build a strong relationship with someone older –– a friend to emulate and trust. For our older students, it’s a beautiful chance to live the values they learn here –– compassion, empathy, responsibility –– and to be true role models and mentors.
