Unit 3 Section A Where Principles Come FirstI. Background information1. Brief introduction of Hyde:The school opened in 1999 with 240 students in grades 7-9 and currently serves 698 students in grades K-4 and 6-12. It will eventually serve more than 1,000 students in grades K-12. The core philosophy of Hyde Leadership PCS is that each individual is gifted with unique potential that defines a destiny. The unique potential is developed through a character-based curriculum that stresses a student-parent-teacher partnership and creates a family-school bond.2. Key Words about Hyde School:Character-Based：One of Hyde’s basic purposes is to develop students' character. This focus on character unleashes the deepest motivation in students' self-discovery. The school helps students answer the following three questions: Who am I? Where am I going? What do I need to do to get there?Five Words: Our Five Words are what we believe define character: Leadership - I am a leader through asking the best of myself and the best of others.Integrity - I am gifted with a unique potential and conscience as my guide to discovering it.Curiosity - I am responsible for my own learning.Courage - I learn the most by facing challenges and taking risks.Concern - I need a challenging and supportive community in which to develop my character.Five Principles: Our Five Principles guide the conduct of all the school’s activity:Destiny - Each of us is gifted with a unique potential that defines a destiny. Humility - We trust in a power and purpose beyond ourselves.Conscience - We achieve our best through character and conscience.Truth - Truth is our primary guide.Brother's Keeper - We help others achieve their best.3. Focus of Hyde: Attitude more than aptitude; Effort more than ability;Character more than talentII.
